Deadly pedestrian accident causes major traffic jams near Lincoln Tunnel in New Jersey; warning issued | Hindustan Times
ABC7 reported that a pedestrian tragically lost their life on Route 495 in New Jersey early Wednesday morning, leading to heavy traffic near the Lincoln Tunnel. The incident took place in the westbound lane at Kennedy Boulevard in Union City, causing a diversion of traffic onto local roads departing from the tunnel. Commuters traveling to New York faced congestion stretching all the way to Route 3 near the Meadowlands due to the closure of the express bus lane and rubbernecking. The reason behind the crash is currently under investigation. In related news, North Jersey experienced significant traffic disruptions after the season's first snowfall on Tuesday. Chief Meteorologist Dan Zarrow's forecast of snow showers proved accurate, leading to accumulations in various counties. The icy conditions resulted in road closures and hazardous situations, prompting warnings to commuters to proceed with caution or explore alternative routes, such as the George Washington Bridge.
