Why this matters: PR-901 is a main artery through Humacao and Yabucoa, so an overturned concrete truck at kilometer 4.5 during the Monday morning commute backs up traffic for drivers heading to work and school in the eastern towns.

A concrete-hauling truck overturned on the morning of Monday, November 9, on PR-901 in Humacao, the Puerto Rico Police Bureau said. The crash was reported at about 7:29 AM at kilometer 4.5 of PR-901, near La Rumba Bar & Restaurant. Authorities were alerted through a call to the 9-1-1 Emergency System.

Police said the truck was carrying concrete and came to rest on the shoulder of the road. "No one was reported injured" in the crash, the police report stated. Although the truck ended up off the roadway, the crash generated traffic congestion in the area.

"Drivers are advised to exercise caution while authorities handle the situation," the police report said. The Police Bureau is investigating.
