A traffic collision involving two vehicles, including an almond harvester, occurred this morning at the intersection of South McCall Avenue and East Muscat Avenue in Sanger, CA. The incident was reported around 5:11 AM, prompting a swift emergency response to manage the scene and control traffic flow.
As a result of the collision, temporary lane closures were implemented, causing significant traffic delays in the area. Motorists experienced backups as crews worked diligently to clear the roadway. A tow truck was dispatched to the scene to remove one of the vehicles, which required towing due to damage sustained in the incident.
In addition to the lane closures, emergency responders addressed an oil spill on the roadway, which further complicated traffic conditions. Barricades were set up to block both directions of travel to ensure safety while cleanup efforts were underway.
By 7:50 AM, the roadway was reopened, allowing traffic to resume normal flow. The efficient response from multiple units helped manage the situation effectively, minimizing disruption during the busy morning commute.
