A hay-truck rollover closed the southbound 605 to westbound 91 connector in Cerritos overnight Thursday. Reporting says the connector reopened shortly after 9 a.m. Friday, Nov. 6. The cause was unclear. This is a dated incident account, not a current traffic alert or a finding about fault. Check official road reports for present conditions. Source: ABC7.

Cleanup followed the rollover

The truck came to rest on its side in a ditch off the connector near Bellflower, the station reported. Aerial video showed hay on the road and crews moving it into another truck.

The account did not establish what caused the rollover. The location of the truck and its spilled load do not establish speed, loading error, fatigue or a mechanical problem. Images of an incident do not substitute for an investigation.

A dated reopening, not live routing

The closure affected the transition between the two freeways during the cleanup. Readers should not interpret a headline about that closure as a statement that the connector remains closed Saturday.
