Spotsylvania County, VA – Drivers in Spotsylvania County are facing delays today after a motor vehicle crash forced lane reductions on a key roadway near Park Road.
According to the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office, westbound traffic on River Road at Park Road has been reduced to one lane due to a crash reported earlier today. Emergency personnel are currently on scene, and drivers are urged to use caution while traveling through the area.
The lane reduction is expected to cause congestion, particularly during peak commuting hours, as River Road serves as a connector for residential neighborhoods and nearby routes in the Fredericksburg-area region. Officials have not released details on injuries or how long the lane restriction will remain in place.
Authorities are advising motorists to seek alternate routes if possible and to remain alert for flashing lights, emergency vehicles, and traffic control measures while passing through the crash scene. Drivers should also anticipate sudden stops or slow-moving traffic as crews work to clear the roadway.
River Road has experienced intermittent traffic issues in the past due to crashes and construction activity, especially near intersections with Park Road. Residents traveling between Spotsylvania County neighborhoods and the Fredericksburg metro area may want to allow extra time or consider detours until normal traffic flow is restored.
No additional information has been released at this time. Updates will be provided as more details become available from law enforcement.
