Alachua County, FL – Drivers in northwest Alachua County are being urged to avoid a busy intersection today after a deadly traffic crash caused major disruptions during the morning hours.
According to the Alachua County Sheriff’s Office, deputies and Alachua County Fire Rescue (ACFR) crews are on scene at NW 107th Terrace and NW 11th Avenue following a single-vehicle crash with a fatality. Authorities confirmed that at least one person died as a result of the incident.
Officials say the crash has led to significant traffic delays in the surrounding area as investigators work to document the scene and determine what led up to the collision. The roadway remains impacted, and drivers are strongly encouraged to seek alternate routes where possible.
The intersection sits in a growing residential and commuter corridor northwest of Gainesville, frequently used by drivers traveling between local neighborhoods and major connecting roads. The closure and slowdown may affect morning and early afternoon travel for residents throughout Alachua County and the greater Gainesville metro area.
No additional details about the victim or the circumstances of the crash have been released at this time. Authorities have not yet indicated when the roadway will fully reopen.
Drivers are asked to remain patient, reduce speed when approaching the area, and follow any directions from law enforcement on scene. Updates are expected as the investigation continues.
