Maricopa Police Department is slowing traffic on Maricopa Casa-Grande Highway after a construction vehicle tipped over on the shoulder at around 1 p.m.
Photos taken by MPD show a dump truck lying on its side on the eastbound shoulder of MCG Highway.
According to MPD spokesman Ricardo Alvarado, the dump truck, moving what appeared to be gravel, tipped over while “dumping its cargo and did it too fast.”
No one was injured in the accident, Alvarado said. A tow truck has been called in to move the dump truck which could take a few hours.
Both lanes remain open. However, MPD has slowed traffic in both directions as a precaution.
