Spotsylvania, VA – Traffic along Patriot Highway in Spotsylvania County is now moving again after an earlier crash caused significant lane closures near Massaponax Church Road, according to the Spotsylvania Sheriff’s Office.
The sheriff’s office announced Saturday morning that several lanes were blocked “in all directions” following a motor vehicle crash. Emergency crews responded to the scene, prompting delays and detours for southbound traffic on Patriot Highway.
According to the department’s latest update, the roadway has since reopened to all traffic. Drivers are still advised to use caution while traveling through the area as emergency personnel remain on scene clearing debris and finalizing cleanup operations.
Authorities have not released details on any injuries or the number of vehicles involved. Motorists are encouraged to check local traffic alerts before heading through the Massaponax corridor to avoid potential slowdowns as conditions return to normal.
This marks one of several recent incidents on the busy highway, which connects Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania’s growing suburban corridors.
