Boca Raton, FL (October 31, 2024) – A significant vehicle collision occurred on I-95 Southbound in the Boca Raton area, specifically near Yamato Road, leading to major traffic disruptions. The crash was first reported just after noon on October 30, and it marks the second major incident in this vicinity within two days.
Traffic cameras in the area, monitored by BocaNewsNow.com, revealed extensive backups extending several miles, particularly around Spanish River Boulevard. The Florida Department of Transportation issued an advisory indicating that three right lanes were blocked due to the crash, which is located beyond Exit 48: SR-794/Yamato Rd. The advisory was last updated at 12:25 PM, warning drivers to “Move Over or Slow Down” as Road Rangers were on the scene.
Emergency responders from Boca Raton Fire Rescue arrived promptly to manage the situation and assist those involved. As a result of the collision, significant delays are expected to persist for an extended period.
