Selkirk Fire Department shared an album: National Grid Truck Hits Pole and Causes Traffic Headaches.

1 week ago

Multiple road closures took place in Selkirk following a crash that took down an electric pole, sending wires over Route 9W.

Emergency crews were dispatched around 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, September 6, for a reported tractor trailer that crashed into an electric pole.

A National Grid flatbed truck was hauling a National Grid utility truck and struck an electric pole at the corner of Bridge Street and Route 9W.

The electric pole snapped in two different locations, causing wires to hang low across Route 9W.

The intersection of Route 9W and Route 396 was shut down until early Friday morning.

The Selkirk Fire Department responded to the scene with Delmar-Bethlehem EMS, with Elsmere fire police assisting with traffic control.

Road closures included:

Route 9W at Lasher Road and at Thatcher Street, Route 396 from Thatcher Street to Route 9W, Bridge Street from Lasher Road to Route 9W.

All roads and the intersection have since reopened as of early Friday Morning.

This all happened on the first day of school of the year for the Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk School District.

The middle and high school closed school early due to the power outages that resulted from the incident.

As National Grid Crews worked throughout the day and night to restore power, there were numerous 911 calls for residents hearing "popping" noises and seeing smoke coming from electrical outlets due to the power surges.

There were no injuries that resulted from the crash. ... See MoreSee Less

Too many accidents at this location. I hate driving by it - I always slow down. Either someone who pulls out without stopping (going south) or someone pulls right in front of you going North. There should be a red light there - before there is a death.

My grandmother refuses to drive in that area if she has to go into albany she goes down delaware ave from delmar into albany and home she says someday someone is going to get killed severly hurt they do need traffic control at that that intersection I was in the area the other day i saw guy in a motorcycle almost get creamed
