On the morning of October 22, 2024, a traffic incident occurred on the I-87 Northway, affecting the southbound lanes just past the Twin Bridges. This location marks the boundary between the Town of Halfmoon and the Town of Colonie, a bustling area known for its proximity to Albany, New York’s capital. The crash resulted in the closure of the left shoulder, causing potential delays for commuters traveling through this key corridor. The I-87 Northway is a major thoroughfare in the region, connecting the Adirondack Mountains to the north with the New York City metropolitan area to the south. The Twin Bridges, officially known as the Thaddeus Kosciuszko Bridge, are a significant landmark in the area, spanning the Mohawk River and serving as a vital link for daily commuters and travelers alike. The incident was reported at 7:35 AM, a peak time for morning traffic, likely impacting the flow of vehicles and contributing to congestion in the surrounding areas. The Town of Colonie, part of Albany County, is a vibrant community with a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial zones, while the Town of Halfmoon, located in Saratoga County, offers a more suburban and rural setting. Both towns are integral parts of the Capital District, a region known for its rich history and economic significance. Motorists in the area are advised to stay informed about traffic conditions and consider alternative routes to avoid delays.
