Tractor Trailer Accident Makes A Mess of El Paso’s Spaghetti Bowl

Take a look at this mess on the Highway 54 and I-10 “Spaghetti Bowl” in the middle of El Paso:

A tractor-trailer overturned about 9 a.m. at U.S. 54 South and I-10 West, causing a gas leak and a back-up of traffic.

The entrance ramp to I-10 West from U.S. 54 South is closed. The I-10 West Copia exit ramp and Montana exit ramp on U.S. 54 South are also closed, according to the Texas Department of Transportation.

Two right lanes on I-10 West at Copia are also blocked off, TxDOT officials said.

The wreck should be cleared within three to four hours.  [El Paso Times]

Fortunately I saw a flashing sign on Highway 54 yesterday warning drivers of the accident and I was able to exit at Hondo Pass and make my way to the west side by using Scenic Drive instead.
