Hey guys, I was stuck in traffic for over 4 hours and 30 mins due to an accident on I-95 Northbound. Avoid the Post Road (Rt. 1) and Rt. 34 everything is screwed up around here due to the accident.
Unfortunately the driver of one of the tractors was killed and multiple injuries occurred. Here is the story and a link to the video with really eye opening video.
I-95 is still closed traffic is being diverted off at exit 34 to the post road. From exits 11-34 is where the traffic had started around 9 this morning now I heard a few drivers talking about traffic back at the GWB but transmission was not clear on my CB...

Milford (WTNH) - One person is dead and several injured following a chain reaction crash on I-95 north in Milford.
It happened around 5:45 a.m. near Exit 34. State Police say three trucks and three passenger vehicles were involved in the accident.
State police say it appears that one of the tractor trailer drivers did not see that traffic had slowed down due to DOT work in the area, causing the chain reaction crash. That driver died as a result of the crash.
There is a fuel spill associated with the accident so the DEP has been called in to help with the clean up.
The northbound lanes are being diverted off the highway after the Moses Wheeler Bridge. There are also curiosity delays in the southbound lanes.
Several others are said to have minor injuries. No DOT workers were injured.
