Felix Theman, the FCT Sector Commander, told our correspondent that the event has resulted in a bottleneck because of the partial obstruction of the motorway.

Due to the collapsed trailer blocking a portion of the freeway, there is presently a bottleneck since there is no free flow of traffic. Our cops are on the ground, meanwhile, making sure that drivers take use of the service lane and the one or two lanes that are still open on the express, he stated.

It’s imperative that drivers be patient and work with the on-scene cops. Lack of collaboration, impatience, and indiscipline might make the traffic situation worse,” he continued.

Additionally, he stated that the appropriate towing agencies have been called and that attempts are being made to remove the obstacle.

“Debasid, the appropriate towing business, has been contacted, and their tow vehicle is currently en route to the location. We anticipate removing the trailer and resuming regular traffic flow shortly,” the sector commander said.

“Yes, it was a crash involving the trailer,” the sector commander said in response to a question about whether the downed trailer was the consequence of an accident. One of the tires came loose. It is now laying across the road after falling. Thankfully, there were just minor injuries and no fatalities.

Traffic was still moving slowly in both ways, and the trailer had not yet been taken out as of the time of writing.
