A multi-vehicle accident on the I-190 South on the south Grand Island bridge has put a major kink in Tuesday morning’s commute.
State Police blocked traffic at the base of the south bridge following a chain-reaction accident involving at least three cars that happened around 9 a.m.
By about 9:40 a.m., traffic was at a standstill and backed up close to the Whitehaven Road exit.
The extent of injuries is currently unknown.

SMITH: Letters from the Island arrives
Greetings from The Island. Wish you were here. Some nit-pickers say we don’t even qualify as an “island,” since we’re connected by bridge to a Mainland we can see from every shore, but some days we’re so “Island-y” that we oughta wear grass skirts. (Well, maybe not ’til it warms up.)
