Montgomery, TX – Drivers in Montgomery County are facing significant delays today after an 18-wheeler became stuck on FM 1484 near Tree Monkey Road, prompting a full shutdown of the northbound lanes.
According to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, the traffic hazard was reported early Tuesday, with deputies confirming that the large truck became immobilized on the roadway, blocking all northbound travel on FM 1484. Authorities said drivers should expect extended delays in the area and use alternate routes if possible.
The stalled 18-wheeler created immediate congestion as morning commuters traveled through the corridor, which connects rural communities north of Conroe with nearby neighborhoods and ranchland. FM 1484 is commonly used as a cut-through route to Texas 105 and Loop 336, increasing the likelihood of backups during incidents like this.
Crews are currently working to evaluate the vehicle and coordinate removal, but officials have not yet provided an estimated reopening time. Southbound traffic is moving, but slowly, due to rubbernecking delays and lane control by law enforcement.
Drivers heading through Montgomery County, especially those traveling toward Conroe or the north side of the county, should plan additional time this morning. Navigation apps may reflect rapidly changing conditions as responders manage the roadway.
The Sheriff’s Office will release updates as they become available.
