On the Skids in Carbon Canyon #17171

There is an accident that took place about 1 1/2 hours ago on the S-curve along Carbon Canyon Road on the Chino Hills side of the canyon.

Eastbound traffic has been at a standstill (or was--this blogger is still at work and received info about this by phone call and then a comment left on this blog by a local resident.)

This was the latest update from the City of Chino Hills Web site at 6 p.m.:

Friday, Feb. 13th - 5:00 pm Accident on Carbon Canyon - Traffic Slowdown

6 pm - Carbon Canyon Road – A single vehicle accident occurred at approximately 5:00 pm at Old Carbon Canyon Road on the Chino Hills side of the S curves. Northbound and southbound traffic flow is alternating in one lane. The tow truck is on scene to clear the vehicle. The road is expected to return to normal flow soon, however traffic impacts are significant.

Perhaps the accident has already been cleared and traffic resuming uninterrupted, however.
