Traffic Accident on 101 at Liberty Canyon Causes Major Back-Up

A two-vehicle collision on the 101 eastbound at Liberty Canyon created a traffic back-up all the way to Westlake Village, officials said.

When a car collided with a pick-up truck towing a trailer at approximately 3:10 p.m. Monday afternoon, it caused all four lanes to be shut down, said Officer Patiana Sauquillo.

The SigAlert that was issued shortly thereafter was cancelled at 6 p.m.; however, traffic is still heavy through the area, she said.

Injuries were reported; however, no details have been given.

The accident is under investigation.
