A traffic collision occurred today on the westbound lanes of State Route 134 (SR-134) at Hollywood Way in Burbank, CA, leading to significant traffic disruptions. The incident involved five vehicles, including a Hyundai sedan, a tan van, a Nissan Sentra, and a Kia, which sustained moderate damage and was unable to be moved. Additional vehicles, including an SUV and a U-Haul truck, were also present at the scene.
As a result of the traffic incident, multiple lanes were blocked, prompting a complete closure of the westbound freeway. This caused substantial backups and delays for motorists during the early morning hours. Law enforcement units responded quickly to manage the situation, directing traffic and ensuring safety at the scene. A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the removal of the damaged Kia, which was obstructing the middle lanes.
By approximately 12:45 AM, all lanes were reopened, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. However, drivers were advised to expect lingering delays as the area cleared. The California Highway Patrol coordinated the emergency response, focusing on traffic management and minimizing further disruptions to the busy highway.
Motorists are encouraged to stay updated on traffic conditions and consider alternative routes if necessary during peak travel times.
