MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — Drivers in Miami-Dade County are facing delays Thursday morning due to multiple accidents affecting major highways.

A crash on northbound Florida Turnpike near Northwest 95th Street is blocking the left lane. Motorists are advised to use U.S. 1 as an alternate route.

On the westbound Palmetto Expressway just past Northwest 67th Avenue, another crash has left the left lane blocked. Traffic there is beginning to ease but delays remain.

Additionally, the ramp to northbound I-95 at Northwest 81st Street is closed due to a separate incident. Commuters should plan to access I-95 further north.

Drivers are urged to allow extra travel time and watch for emergency responders on scene.
