Several lanes closed on northbound 605 after fiery crash in City of Industry
Several lanes of the northbound 605 Freeway at the eastbound 60 Freeway in the City of Industry are closed after a fiery crash involving a big rig Thursday morning.
Cal Trans issued a Sig Alert around 4:15 a.m. after fuel from the vehicles began spilling onto the roadway. The right two lanes and transitions to the east and westbound 60 Freeway are closed.
The lane closures have caused traffic to back up for several miles.
Members from the Los Angeles County Fire Department responded to the crash at 3:20 a.m. Crews worked to put out flames. The driver of the big rig was transported to the hospital.
The CHP said the freeway will remain closed for a few hours as they work to clear the roadway and remove the vehicles.
They urge drivers to move through the area with caution and expect delays.
There is no immediate information on the condition of the drivers.
