Kenosha County, WI – Drivers in western Kenosha County are being urged to avoid a stretch of Burlington Road today following a multi-vehicle crash that has shut down traffic in both directions.
According to the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office, the closure impacts State Highway 142 (Burlington Road) in the 22000 block, between US 45 (200th Avenue) and County Highway BD (252nd Avenue). The roadway was shut down after a four-vehicle crash, which includes at least one vehicle that rolled over.
Authorities say the incident was reported earlier today, and emergency crews remain on scene managing the situation and clearing the roadway. The closure is expected to cause delays for commuters traveling through the area, particularly those heading between Burlington, WI and nearby communities in Kenosha County and the greater Chicago metro region.
According to officials, no major injuries have been reported at this time. However, deputies and rescue personnel continue to work the scene, and drivers are being asked to avoid the area entirely to allow emergency crews to operate safely.
Motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes and plan for additional travel time if traveling near the impacted corridor. Updates on reopening times have not yet been released.
This stretch of STH 142 is a key connector in western Kenosha County, and closures can significantly impact local and regional traffic flow during peak hours.
Drivers should continue monitoring local alerts for the latest developments.
