Multiple Traffic Accidents In Warrington Cause Traffic Headaches

WARRINGTON TOWNSHIP, PA — Three accidents caused traffic headaches in Warrington Township on Tuesday.

The first happened just before noon on Route 611 (Easton Road) when a vehicle struck a utility pole and knocked wires down across the highway at Tri-County Exteriors at 374 Easton Road.

The crash initially closed both lanes of the highway between Street Road (Route 132) and Paul Valley Road due to wires across the roadway. By about 1:30 p.m., traffic was getting by with lane restrictions and travel delays.

A second crash was reported by police at 6:35 p.m. at the 202 Parkway near Limekiln Pike. The three car crash with injuries shut down the road for more than an hour.

A third crash happened on Lower State Road just south of Street Road at 9:15 p.m. The two-car crash with minor injuries shut down Lower State Road. One driver was taken into custody due to impairment, police said.
