Traffic is getting heavy on a busy east Charlotte road after a crash into a pole forced CMPD to close inbound lanes of Albemarle Road Monday morning. The incident occurred just after 2:30 a.m. on Monday on Albemarle Road by the intersection with Reddman Road, resulting in the diversion of drivers.
According to the CMPD traffic logs, the crash led to the closure of the inbound lanes of Albemarle Road. CMPD has set up a blockade, and a unit is stationed at the scene of the accident. The blockade has caused traffic to back up onto Central Avenue. Outbound lanes of Albemarle do not appear to be impacted by the incident.
MEDIC reported that one person was hospitalized with serious injuries as a result of the crash. The NCDOT has indicated that they expect the road to re-open by noon on Monday. Duke Energy stated that no significant power outages are associated with the crash, but one customer is currently without power. They estimate that the issue will be resolved by 9:30 a.m.
