A traffic collision on State Route 99 North, just south of State Route 46 in McFarland, CA, has resulted in significant traffic disruptions today. The incident, involving a single black Honda Civic, occurred around 10:53 AM during the morning commute. The vehicle went off the roadway and struck a sign, causing gravel to spill onto the road.
As a result of the collision, lanes two and three have been blocked, leading to planned lane closures for approximately three hours to allow for cleanup and plowing operations. Emergency services quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and coordinate the necessary lane closures, ensuring the safety of all motorists.
Drivers in the area should anticipate delays and potential backups as cleanup efforts are underway. The closure of these lanes is expected to create congestion, particularly during peak travel times. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid the affected area and minimize travel time.
