Manorhouse Lane crash brings major morning delays Thursday

A major crash at Manorhouse Lane and Noblewood Crest Lane brought traffic to a crawl Thursday morning. The wreck happened at 8:07 AM, creating significant backups in the area during the peak commute.

Responding officers worked to clear the scene and restore traffic flow. Details on injuries and the number of vehicles involved weren't immediately available, but the incident triggered a full emergency response.

This intersection has seen repeated incidents over the past year. According to LTA data, the location logged 57 total crashes in the past 12 months, with 25 of those classified as major—meaning significant vehicle damage, injuries, or both. That's a notably active stretch. In just the past 30 days, five incidents have been recorded here, including today's major crash.

When you zoom into state crash records, the pattern becomes clearer. Per TxDOT CRIS public crash records, the corridor has logged 92 crashes since January 2020, with no fatalities recorded. Contributing factors as recorded by the investigating officer show "Failed To Control Speed" as the leading factor, cited in 21 crashes. That's a meaningful share of the incidents at this intersection.

The weather was clear at the time—scattered clouds and 84 degrees—so road conditions weren't a complicating factor this morning.

If you're heading through that area, expect delays while crews finish clearing. Local roads around the intersection may offer relief, but you'll want to give yourself extra time until the all-clear comes through.
