On Wednesday afternoon, an accident involving a semi-truck blocked the area of W University Way and W Dolarway Drive, west of Central Washington University.
A traffic issue may persist for a while at this roundabout, where a massive semi-truck fell over on its side and blocked the road. Authorities advised the motorists to avoid the west interchange and urged anyone passing through the area to find an alternate route. Traffic crews, medics, police, and Washington State Troopers are currently on the scene to assess the damage, tend to the injured individuals, and direct traffic away.
As of now, it is unknown how many people received injured as a result of the wreck, but at least one person was hurt. The crash site is around three miles west of the CWU campus and is just inside the western boundaries of the City of Ellensburg; within close proximity of the Yakima River.
The circumstances surrounding the crash remain under review.
