A traffic collision on Interstate 880 North in San Jose, CA, caused significant disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident involved a solo vehicle that veered off the roadway and ended up down an embankment. Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety.
To facilitate vehicle recovery, lane closures were implemented along the transition from Interstate 880 North to U.S. Highway 101 South. A tow truck was called to assist in removing the vehicle, which had sustained damage during the incident. As a result, motorists experienced delays and congestion in the area, particularly during peak travel hours.
By approximately 7:10 AM, the transition ramp was reopened, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. However, reports indicated that four concrete electric conduit boxes were damaged during the recovery process, which may require further attention from maintenance crews.
Drivers are advised to remain cautious and aware of potential residual delays as cleanup efforts continue. The California Highway Patrol is actively managing the scene and encourages all motorists to stay updated on traffic conditions and plan their routes accordingly.
