A traffic collision occurred today at the intersection of East Woodbury Road and Fair Oaks Avenue in Altadena, CA, involving two vehicles: a black Toyota four-door and a silver pickup truck. The incident was reported around 9:46 AM, resulting in both vehicles obstructing lanes and blocking the intersection, which led to significant traffic delays.
California Highway Patrol (CHP) units were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. The obstruction caused congestion in the area, particularly impacting the morning commute for many drivers. Towing services were called to remove the vehicles, which were blocking the roadway and contributing to the traffic backup.

Additionally, it was noted that the pedestrian crossing signal at the southwest corner of the intersection sustained damage from the collision but remained functional.
