HIGHWAY 9 SOUTHBOUND IS STILL CLOSED NEAR MIDDLE ROAD (WHICH IS BETWEEN BROOKDALE AND BOULDER CREEK) DUE TO AN ACCIDENT THAT OCCURRED JUST BEFORE 8 A.M. THIS MORNING. THAT’S WHEN A VEHICLE HIT A POWER POLE. BECAUSE P.G. & E. CREWS ARE OUT THERE WORKING TO RESTORE SERVICE TO THE AREA, SOUTHBOUND TRAFFIC IS BEING DETOURED ONTO ALBA, THEN EMPIRE GRADE ROAD AND JAMISON CREEK ROAD AND BACK TO HIGHWAY 9.
THE NORTHBOUND LANE OF HIGHWAY 9 IS OPEN, ALTHOUGH TRAFFIC IS REPORTEDLY MOVING SLOWLY THROUGH THE AREA.
