Delivery Van Collides With Railway Viaduct on Praga’s Targowa Street

A Renault delivery van slammed into a low railway viaduct on Targowa street in Praga, causing a temporary traffic block but no injuries, authorities reported.

Incident Details

A delivery van was traveling in the left lane on Targowa street when it struck a low‑suspended railway viaduct, briefly blocking the road beneath the rail crossing. No injuries were reported.

Traffic Impact

The collision left one lane toward the Wiatraczna roundabout temporarily closed. Local traffic authorities imposed short‑term restrictions in the area.

Cause and Regulation

Investigations indicate the van was in the left lane, which carries a lower clearance limit. A B‑16 sign on that lane prohibits vehicles taller than 2.2 metres.

Repeats At This Spot

Officials note that similar collisions involving delivery and heavy trucks have occurred at this location before.
