A traffic collision on eastbound US-50 at Hazel Avenue in Rancho Cordova, CA, has resulted in significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred around 6:12 PM and involved two vehicles that are currently not movable. As a consequence, the left two lanes of eastbound US-50 have been closed to facilitate emergency response and towing operations.

Multiple emergency units responded to the scene to manage traffic and clear the roadway. A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the vehicles involved in the crash, which has led to traffic congestion in the area. The California Highway Patrol issued a Sig Alert at approximately 6:42 PM, notifying drivers of the lane closures and estimating that the affected lanes would remain closed for about 30 minutes.

Motorists traveling eastbound on US-50 should anticipate delays and consider alternative routes to avoid the backup. The closure of the left two lanes is impacting traffic flow, particularly during the busy evening commute. Drivers are advised to exercise caution and remain alert as they navigate through the area.
