A crash involving a big rig hauling milk has left all but one lane of the southbound 5 Freeway closed through Burbank on one of the busiest traffic days of the year.
The crash occurred about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday just north of Burbank Boulevard, according to the California Highway Patrol’s traffic incident page.
The overturned tanker was leaking thousands of gallons of milk across lanes and blocking traffic. Just before 6 a.m., a SigAlert was issued.
By 8:20 a.m., CHP was saying only the No. 1 lane would remain open until 1 p.m.
The crash comes more than 4 million Southern California drivers are expected to hit the roads for the Thanksgiving holiday.
