A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on the westbound lanes of Interstate 10 (I-10) near the Interstate 10 West and State Route 57 Connector in Pomona, CA. The incident took place around 1:27 PM and involved a red pickup truck and a box truck. The red pickup truck sustained front-end damage and was towed from the scene.
As a result of the traffic incident, lane closures were implemented, including restrictions on the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane. This led to traffic delays and congestion in the area, particularly during the busy afternoon commute. Emergency response units were dispatched to manage the situation, focusing on the safe removal of the vehicles and overall scene control.
By approximately 2:00 PM, a tow truck arrived to assist with the removal of the damaged pickup truck, which was moved to a safe location off the highway. Traffic flow began to improve as the vehicles were cleared from the roadway, but motorists were advised to remain cautious due to potential residual delays.
Drivers traveling through this area should expect possible backups as the situation was resolved. The California Highway Patrol monitored the scene to ensure safe travel for all road users.
