On October 30, 2024, at approximately 3:38 PM, a traffic incident occurred on I-490 westbound near Exit 23, which connects to NY 441 in the Brighton area. This crash has resulted in the blockage of two out of the three available lanes, causing significant disruptions for commuters traveling through this part of New York. I-490 is a major highway that serves as a vital corridor for traffic moving in and out of the Rochester metropolitan area, making this incident particularly impactful for local and through traffic.

Brighton, a suburban town located just southeast of Rochester, is known for its residential neighborhoods and proximity to key roadways, including I-490 and NY 441. The area surrounding the incident is typically bustling with activity, as it serves as a conduit for both local residents and those commuting to and from the city. The blockage of two lanes on this busy stretch of highway is likely to lead to delays and congestion, affecting not only Brighton but also the surrounding communities that rely on these roadways for daily travel.

Motorists in the area are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid the congestion caused by the lane closures. The incident highlights the importance of staying informed about traffic conditions, especially in regions with high commuter traffic like Brighton and the greater Rochester area. As the situation develops, updates will be crucial for those navigating this part of New York to ensure a smooth and safe journey.
