 PARK CITY, Utah, Mar. 30, 2023 (Gephardt Daily) — Emergency crews would like to remind motorists that melting snow can turn into ice when the sun goes down as they clear a crash scene tonight.
“At approximately 7 p.m. PCFD responded to multiple car accidents just east of mile marker 139 I-80 East bound,” reads a Park City Fire District post on social media which included a photo of one of four vehicle accidents all in the same area of 1-80.
In addition to the police response, including the Utah Highway Patrol, six emergency vehicles from the PCFD responded. Three patients have been transported to valley hospitals, according to the 9 p.m. post.
“Please use caution tonight on the roadways,” Fire Chief Sean Briley said. “While they may look clear of snow they are exceptionally slick.“
