A traffic collision occurred today on US Highway 101 North at Willow Road Off-Ramp in East Palo Alto, CA, involving three vehicles: a Ford F150, a black Chevrolet truck, and a grey truck with a trailer. The incident took place during the afternoon rush hour, leading to partial lane blockages and significant delays for drivers in the area.
Emergency response teams were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. At least one of the vehicles required towing, which contributed to the congestion as crews worked to clear the roadway. The presence of multiple emergency units further exacerbated the slow-moving traffic, resulting in backups in the affected lanes.
As responders worked diligently to restore normal traffic flow, motorists were advised to expect delays and consider alternate routes. The situation highlighted the need for caution while driving, especially during peak travel times.
Authorities continue to remind drivers to remain alert and patient when navigating through areas impacted by traffic incidents. The response teams are focused on clearing the scene as quickly as possible to minimize disruption to the flow of traffic.
