A serious road accident occurred this Tuesday morning around 6:30 am, at the intersection between the N 104 and the A6 motorway near Villabé.

The right front passenger, seriously injured, was extricated by the emergency services and hospitalized in absolute emergency.

The road reopened at 9 a.m.

A heavy goods vehicle also struck the safety rail, without its direct involvement in the accident being determined at this time.

Traffic was interrupted for a long time this morning on the A6, in particular due to the landing of a Dragon helicopter.

Long traffic jams were observed between Barbizon (Seine-et-Marne) and Évry-Courcouronnes (Essonne).

Police officers from the highway CRS were dispatched to the scene, as well as 17 firefighters and ten emergency vehicles.

The road was reopened to two lanes around 9 a.m.

In March 2022, a serious accident between two heavy goods vehicles on the A10 motorway occurred in Allainville, a town in Yvelines bordering Essonne.

Both truck drivers died in the collision.
