Cement Truck Crash Closes M-59 Near Rochester Rd
A Cement Truck Crash Closes M-59 Near Rochester Rd on Thursday afternoon, leading to the closure of multiple lanes on eastbound Michigan 59. Road officials report that the accident occurred in Oakland County around 2 p.m., when a cement truck flipped onto its side, spilling cement across the roadway and causing significant traffic disruptions.
The full details of the crash are still under investigation, and it’s unclear if there were any injuries at the time of the incident. First responders were on the scene quickly, working to clear the roadway and ensure the safety of all involved. Cleanup efforts took several hours, as the spilled cement created hazardous driving conditions, making the road impassable for motorists. Commuters and drivers in the area were advised to find alternate routes while crews worked to clear the scene.
Compensation at Stake for Victims
While the exact circumstances of the crash remain unclear, it’s important to note that accidents involving large commercial vehicles, such as cement trucks, can result in serious injuries and extensive damages.
