Motorcylist seriously injured in crash near major I-15 exit in Salt Lake City
SALT LAKE CITY () — A motorcyclist suffered serious injuries after being involved in a crash on 300 West and 600 South in Salt Lake City on Wednesday morning.
The Salt Lake City Police Department on social media shortly after 8 a.m. on June 11. Police did not immediately provide details about the crash, saying only that the crash involved two cars and a motorcycle. The motorcyclist was reportedly taken to the hospital in serious condition.
The police department warned that due to debris scattered through the intersection, the crash would cause significant traffic impacts to the area while officers conducted their investigation and cleared the scene. Officers fully closed the intersection and began diverting traffic one block away in each direction.
According to the Traffic Monitor map provided by the Utah Department of Transportation, 600 South is experiencing significant slowing, backing up on the off-ramp from eastbound I-80. Additional traffic impacts are affecting 400 West and 300 West.
It is currently unclear when the intersection at 600 South and 300 West will reopen, but investigators expect it to be closed for 'several hours.'
Utahns on their morning commute into Salt Lake City are advised to use alternate routes. Northbound traffic from I-15 can take the 1300 South exit or the West Temple exit to 900 South. The 400 South exit is also available to northbound drivers for those carpooling or with an HOV Express Lane pass.
