Albuquerque, NM (September 10, 2025) – A traffic accident involving injuries was reported Tuesday afternoon near the intersection of I-25 Northbound Frontage Road Northeast and L Street in Albuquerque. The collision occurred around 4:51 p.m., during peak traffic hours, prompting a priority emergency response.
Units from Engine 3 and Medic 3 were dispatched under a “29 Bravo 1” classification, indicating a motor vehicle accident with confirmed injuries. Emergency responders arrived quickly to render medical aid to those hurt in the incident. While the exact number of individuals injured has not yet been released, paramedics provided treatment at the scene and evaluated whether transport to a hospital was needed.
The crash took place along the northbound frontage road of I-25, a high-traffic corridor commonly used by commuters accessing local businesses and highway entry ramps. The complex mix of local traffic and freeway-adjacent speed changes makes this a frequent site for rear-end and side-impact collisions.
First responders worked to secure the scene, assist the injured, and manage traffic in the surrounding area. Lane blockages were reported during the initial response, and motorists were advised to avoid the area temporarily. Law enforcement is continuing to investigate the cause of the crash, including the possibility of distraction, unsafe merging, or sudden stops as contributing factors.
We send our best wishes to those injured and hope for their full and speedy recovery.
