UPDATE: The accident has been cleared.
UPDATE 12:45 p.m. — It appear that the road might be now open, but traffic remains.
WILLITS, 4/24/19 — An accident on Sherwood Rd., in Brooktrails, has temporarily closed one lane of that important thoroughfare, and traffic is backing up significantly. It appears that no one was injured at the scene of the accident, though one of the cars was carrying a newborn infant, and the baby was taken to Howard Memorial Hospital as a precaution.
It appears that the accident involved a white Dodge, a Subaru and perhaps a third car that left the scene.
As of 12:40 p.m. the roadway was either down to one lane, or completely closed due to clean up, and traffic was worsening.
This closure comes close on the heals of a long closure last week due to down power lines. Indeed, Sherwood Rd. remains the only way in and out of Brooktrails, a major choke-point and inconvenience for residents when accidents or other emergencies occur.
