TRAFFIC ALERT: DON’T TAKE I

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2024 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — We're not going to call it a major accident, but a car fire — or what was a car fire — is leading to huge delays on I-95 in Boca Raton around 1 p.m.

The care fire call is in the area of Peninsula Corp Drive. The red car, above, was apparently on fire, or someone thought it was one. That lead to a significant Boca Raton Fire Rescue response. At least one Road Ranger is on the scene, as well. Traffic being pushed out of the two most left lanes, which is causing a significant bottleneck that seems to span for at least a mile.

The good news: it does not appear that anyone was injured. The bad news: this may go on for a bit and it appears to be raining in that area of I-95 as well. Expect delays to persist.

Your best bet: get off of I-95 wherever you area as you approach Boca Raton. Head south on Jog/Military Trail, and then re-enter I-95 at Palmetto Park Boulevard. Good luck.
