This measure has been implemented to facilitate the investigation, ensure the safety of those involved in the investigation, and hopefully prevent further accidents or disturbances at the scene. Drivers are advised to seek alternative routes. If you must travel near this intersection, please follow instructions from law enforcement personnel that are present at the scene, but be aware there may be travel delays.
