DRAPER, Utah (ABC4) — A semi-truck crash in Draper shut down all eastbound traffic on 12300 South on Thursday, July 18, according to city officials.

Details on the crash are limited, however, officials say the semi-truck struck a pole in the intersection of 12300 South and 265 West near I-15. The crash caused damage to the traffic signal in the intersection, disrupting the flow of traffic.

Draper City alerted drivers in the area that eastbound traffic on 123000 was shut down while UDOt made repairs to the traffic signal.

“No traffic will be allowed to turn from 265 West onto 12300 South in the Eastbound direction,” officials said.

Westbound traffic will continue to flow as normal. The Utah Department of Transportation said they estimate repairs will take a minimum of four hours, placing the earliest opening time at about 2 p.m.

According to a traffic map provided by the Utah Department of Transportation, traffic in the area has begun to slow near the intersection. A live feed camera in the area reveals Draper Police blocking lanes with one traffic signal dangling from its overhanging pole.

CrowdStrike's rivals stand to benefit from its update fail debacle
The CrowdStrike debacle — a bug in the company's Windows software that had the disastrous effect of rendering PCs unusable — has disrupted flights, canceled elective medical treatments, and left many an office worker twiddling their thumbs for hours. Unsurprisingly, it's also tanked CrowdStrike's stock price, even as the company's CEO, George Kurtz, promises a fix and systems begin to crawl back online. While it's difficult to assess at present the business fallout from what's being called the worst IT outage in history, investors appear to be sensing opportunity.

CrowdStrike chaos leads to grounded aircraft — and maybe an unusual weather effect
Air traffic for many airlines ground to a halt after a buggy update from CrowdStrike took down Windows computers around the world. While the IT outage is causing headaches for travelers, it may also have an unexpected effect on the climate: clearer skies and maybe lower temperatures this evening, according to David Travis, a scientist who has performed pioneering research on how jets can affect the weather. Planes flying at high altitudes frequently leave contrails, the billowy streaks created when jet engines dump water vapor and pollution into the atmosphere.

What we know about CrowdStrike's update fail that's causing global outages and travel chaos
A faulty software update issued by security giant CrowdStrike has resulted in a massive overnight outage that’s affected Windows computers around the world, disrupting businesses, airports, train stations, banks, broadcasters and the healthcare sector. CrowdStrike said the outage was not caused by a cyberattack, but was the result of a "defect" in a software update for its flagship security product, Falcon Sensor. The defect caused any Windows computers that Falcon is installed on to crash without fully loading.
