Chaos ensued on the I-15 today as a multi-vehicle collision forced the closure of all northbound lanes near Flamingo Road. The Nevada Department of Transportation issued an advisory early this morning, urging motorists to avoid the area and prepare for delays. With the I-15 northbound ramp from Flamingo also shut down, the ripple effects of the crash are expected to snarl traffic for hours.

While the details of the incident remain scarce, the Nevada State Police revealed that the pileup involved three vehicles. Tragically, one person has been transported to the hospital in critical condition, as reported by KTNV. The repercussions of the crash saw commuters seeking alternate routes to circumnavigate the congested nexus of I-15 and Flamingo.

As the sun climbed higher and the heat of the day began to beat down on the stalled cars and emergency vehicles, the question on everyone's mind was when normalcy would return to this stretch of asphalt. At the time of writing, neither authorities nor the Regional Transportation Commission had provided a definitive timeframe for reopening the road. This uncertainty only adds to the growing frustration among drivers caught in the chaos.

Officials are working diligently to manage the situation and ensure the safety of all involved. For updated information on the status of the closure and traffic conditions, drivers are encouraged to monitor local news outlets and the Nevada Department of Transportation's alerts. According to News3LV, the situation remains a developing story, and more updates are to come as they become available.
