A traffic collision on State Route 15 South in San Diego, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident involved one vehicle, a white Ford SUV, which was found off the shoulder and facing the wrong way after possibly hitting a concrete wall.
Emergency response units from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) were dispatched to the scene to manage the situation and ensure safety. As a result of the traffic incident, lane and ramp restrictions were implemented, leading to delays for motorists traveling through the area. Traffic was particularly impacted on the ramp to Market Street, which was temporarily closed to facilitate emergency response efforts.
By 8:05 AM, the roadway was reported clear off at Market Street, allowing traffic to resume more smoothly. A tow truck was called to assist with the vehicle's removal, further aiding in the restoration of normal traffic flow.
Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect potential backups as traffic returns to normal. The CHP's prompt response helped manage the situation effectively, minimizing the impact on the busy morning commute.
