FIVE INJURED IN TURNPIKE ACCIDENT

A serious multi-vehicle collision on the Florida Turnpike in Southwest Miami-Dade has resulted in injuries to at least five people and caused significant traffic disruption late Sunday night. According to officials, the motor vehicle accident occurred near Southwest 56th Street at approximately 9:45 p.m., prompting a swift response from both Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units.

The Perazzo Law firm gathered from news reports that emergency personnel confirmed that five individuals required medical attention, although details regarding the severity of their injuries remain unclear at this time. Rescue crews transported the injured to local hospitals in the area, while officials worked to clear the scene and assess roadway conditions.

By 11 p.m., traffic cameras indicated that three southbound lanes had reopened near Southwest 56th Street; however, delays persisted as cleanup and investigation efforts continued. Authorities are urging motorists to avoid the area and consider using alternate routes to bypass congestion.

Suggested Detour Routes for Affected Drivers

For drivers heading southbound on the Turnpike and looking to avoid the impacted stretch near Southwest 56th Street, the following detour routes are recommended:

Exit at Bird Road (SW 40th Street) – Head west to Krome Avenue (SW 177th Avenue) and continue southbound to rejoin the Turnpike further down.
Exit at Miller Drive (SW 56th Street) – Travel east toward US-1 (South Dixie Highway) for alternate access to key destinations in Kendall or Homestead.
SW 137th Avenue Corridor – Motorists can use SW 137th Avenue to navigate parallel to the Turnpike before merging back on further south.

Possible Destination Considerations

Kendall Regional Medical Center: For those traveling to medical facilities in Kendall, taking SW 88th Street (Kendall Drive) eastward from the Turnpike is a viable option.
Zoo Miami: Visitors heading to Zoo Miami should consider taking SW 152nd Street west from US-1 to avoid Turnpike-related delays.
Homestead: Drivers bound for Homestead can follow US-1 southward, which runs parallel to the Turnpike, offering an uninterrupted route.

Given the severity of the crash and the ongoing investigation, local authorities are likely to continue monitoring traffic flow in the area for the coming hours. Motorists are advised to check real-time traffic updates and plan routes accordingly to minimize delays.
