A deadly crash unfolded on MacArthur Causeway Thursday morning when a motorcycle and a sedan collided, leading to the death of the motorcyclist, according to officials in Miami Beach.
The accident prompted a full closure of the eastbound lanes, significantly impacting traffic heading into the city. Law enforcement redirected vehicles westbound at Fountain Street while urging commuters to use alternate routes such as the Venetian or Julia Tuttle Causeways.
No additional information regarding the victim’s identity or the circumstances leading up to the crash has been made public. Authorities say an investigation is underway to determine what caused the incident.
This marks another serious traffic disruption on one of Miami’s most vital connectors between the mainland and the beach.
