A cement truck rollover caused significant traffic delays in southwest Miami-Dade on Monday, as authorities and emergency crews responded to the scene on Florida's Turnpike near Bird Road. The overturned vehicle, which landed on the median, blocked two southbound lanes, complicating the morning commute for many drivers. Crews worked diligently to tow the incapacitated cement truck and restore traffic flow, reports WSVN.

The incident, which occurred early in the day, also involved multiple vehicles, according to Local 10. Though the crash led to a person being urgently taken to a nearby hospital, details about their identity or medical condition have yet not been made public. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue confirmed that one person was transported due to injuries sustained in the accident.

Helicopter footage from Sky 10 captured the scene around 11:15 a.m., showing the cement truck lying on its side before the Bird Road exit of the Turnpike. The area was busy with first responders who were seen assessing damage, while a bulldozer worked alongside to help clear the debris.

Despite the chaos, authorities managed to keep traffic moving cautiously around the crash site without announcing further lane closures. As the cleanup continued, drivers were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid lengthy delays. The official investigation into the cause of the accident is ongoing, and more information is expected to be released following a comprehensive evaluation of the situation.
