A traffic collision on State Route 193 in Newcastle, CA, has resulted in significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred around 1:17 PM and involved two vehicles: a gray subcompact vehicle that struck a pole and another vehicle that went off the roadway into a tree.

Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. Crews from Pacific Gas and Electric (PGE) were called to assess the damaged power pole, which required stabilization. As a result, one-way traffic control was implemented, leading to potential delays for motorists in the area. Hard lane closures were also established, causing backups and congestion during the afternoon commute.

A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the collision. The tow operations are expected to take some time, as PGE crews work to secure the area. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays caused by this traffic incident.

As the situation develops, updates will be provided to keep the public informed about road conditions and any changes in traffic patterns. Travelers are encouraged to remain patient and drive cautiously in the vicinity of the incident.
