Update: 2 hurt in Delridge/Oregon crash; road has reopened

6:09 PM: Northbound Delridge at Oregon, near Youngstown Cultural Arts Center, is blocked by a 2-vehicle crash. Avoid the area. More to come.

6:22 PM: Police confirm at the scene, no major injuries. Two people were being transported by private ambulance. No TCI callout, so it will not be a long closure.

6:39 PM: Added a photo taken from the footbridge by Youngstown, looking south over the northbound lanes. We’ll be checking back on the scene before the top of the hour.

6:44 PM: Police just announced via scanner that Delridge is open both ways again.

    Saw this just after this happened. The white car looked to have been T-boned and was pushed up onto the parking strip. The other darker car wasn’t into good shape either. Hope everyone one is okay.

    I see near-misses at that intersection almost every morning while waiting for the bus. I’m actually surprised at how few accidents I’ve seen there.

    Those who exceed the speed limit by 10+ mph on a regular basis should budget for bodywork (of both types).

    I’ve almost been t-boned there turning left onto Delridge from Oregon by someone going South on Delridge who did not stop. No idea if that is what happened here, but it is one of those intersections that sneaks up on you on Delridge. Hope everyone is ok!

Sorry, comment time is over.
