A traffic collision on State Route 60 West in Los Angeles, CA, has caused significant disruptions to traffic flow this morning. The incident occurred around 1:27 AM, when a large object was reported blocking the third lane of the highway. Emergency response units quickly arrived on the scene to manage the situation, but all westbound lanes were halted just east of Downey Road.
It was confirmed that one vehicle was involved in the collision and was subsequently towed from the scene. Traffic management units were deployed to control the flow of vehicles, but the blockage resulted in considerable backup, impacting morning commuters.
