Prince George’s County, MD (January 31, 2026) – A traffic accident with injuries occurred on January 30 along the northbound lanes of MD-295 (Baltimore-Washington Parkway) just past Powder Mill Rd. The collision led to significant congestion, with delays stretching roughly three miles before lanes were reopened.
The crash temporarily blocked all travel lanes, creating heavy traffic backups during peak travel hours. Officials later confirmed that at least one person was injured in the incident, though specific details about the number of vehicles involved or the extent of injuries have not been released.
Traffic flow was gradually restored after emergency crews cleared the roadway and ensured it was safe for drivers. Commuters experienced extended delays even after lanes reopened, as congestion slowly eased in the area.
Authorities are reviewing the circumstances surrounding the crash. Further information may become available as the investigation continues.
We extend our best wishes to the individual injured in this crash and hope for a swift recovery.
