Car Fire, Collision Slow Down Traffic On NB I-5
A car fire near the county line and a collision near the Airport Way exit are making for a slow morning commute.
MILTON, WA - A car fire near the Pierce County line on northbound I-5 is causing rubbernecking delays. Fire response is causing a back up in the two right lanes. Meanwhile, a collision on the Airport Way ramp is slowing down traffic in Seattle. If that wasn't enough, a disabled vehicle is blocking the right two lanes just south of Federal Way.
The state Department of Transportation recommends you find alternative routes to northbound I-5.
