A stalled box truck is blocking lanes, causing a 4-mile backup on Florida’s Turnpike in Palm Beach County. The incident is occurring on the northbound lanes, near the Lake Worth Road exit.

Alternate Routes

Motorists are advised to take alternate routes to avoid the congestion. One possible route is to exit at Boynton Beach Boulevard, take Lyons Road or jog northbound to Lake Worth Road, and then reenter the turnpike.

Other incidents are also being reported in the area, including a local crash on Melaleuca and Davis Road. However, the stalled box truck on the turnpike is the primary cause of the current traffic congestion.
