Slippery Conditions Cause Crashes on 434 in Binghamton

Authorities report a three car crash on Route 434 coming into the City of Binghamton at the Conklin Road exit while salt crews were also being dispatched for traffic issues Southbound.

Just before 11 a.m. a single car was reported in a median on the South approach to Conklin Avenue and the State Street Bridge.  That report was quickly followed with word of a three-car pile up.

Shortly after 11, salt trucks were being summoned to the State Street Bridge southbound. There were reports of black ice and cars spinning out in the region.

While there had been no significant precipitation for several hours, roads remain damp and temperatures well below freezing.
