A traffic collision occurred today on State Route 60 West near Hacienda Boulevard in Hacienda Heights, CA, involving two vehicles: a UPS semi-truck and a box truck that overturned onto its right side. The incident took place during the early morning hours and resulted in significant lane closures, impacting traffic flow in the area.
Emergency response teams arrived promptly to manage the scene and direct traffic. The overturned box truck was not drivable and required towing services, leading to the blockage of multiple lanes. As a result, motorists experienced delays and congestion during the morning commute.
Traffic management efforts were implemented to minimize disruption, with officers on-site directing vehicles away from the affected lanes. The three right lanes were closed for an extended period while crews worked to clear the scene and remove the overturned vehicle.
Motorists traveling through the area were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays. Updates on the status of the roadway were provided as the situation progressed. The quick response from emergency personnel helped to restore normal traffic conditions as soon as possible.
Drivers are reminded to remain cautious and stay informed about traffic conditions in the area.
