Palm Beach County Fire Rescue tweeted that there is an accident on the Turnpike, southbound, north of Glades Road. We don’t have more information yet, but they don’t tweet every accident so this one may be more serious.
We do see significant traffic impact on Google Maps. It’s significantly north of the Glades Road interchange, so if you’re getting on the Turnpike it should be fine. For any drivers coming southbound to get off at Glades or further south, expect significant delays. The red line signifies very low speeds.

More Traffic Problems in West Boca
We’ve had multiple reports of traffic problems today in West Boca. Earlier today there was a bad accident on the Turnpike that caused serious backups both northbound and southbound near Glades Road. Red lines, from Google Traffic, are bad news.
That appears to have cleared up. Around 1 pm we were notified of a mess at Lyons and Glades Road and we actually saw it as we were leaving Stallone’s. Fortunately for us we were going the other way. That had to do with a traffic light being out.
Just now we heard that 441 is closed near New England Blvd due to another traffic light being out.
And we also heard that the light at Lyons and Yamato may be out. Google Maps shows traffic problems in both of those areas, though fortunately it doesn’t look too bad.
It’s just one of those days.
