A traffic collision occurred today at the intersection of South Halcyon Road and Mountain View Road in Arroyo Grande, CA, involving one vehicle, a white Thunderbird. The incident took place around 3:51 PM when the Thunderbird collided with a telephone pole and a road sign, causing damage to both roadside structures.
Emergency response units were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety for motorists. Crews worked diligently to assess the damage, which included a sheared black and yellow turn sign. The telephone pole sustained damage but remained upright, prompting utility crews from Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) to be notified for further inspection.
As emergency responders worked at the scene, drivers in the area may have experienced delays and congestion. The Thunderbird reportedly left the scene heading towards Oceano on State Route 1, which could have contributed to additional traffic disruptions.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution when approaching the area and to anticipate possible backups as the situation is addressed. Authorities are actively managing the traffic incident to restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.
