A major crash at Campbell Road and Hammerly Boulevard disrupted traffic Friday morning around 10:55 AM. The collision drew a response from authorities, and the intersection saw significant congestion as crews worked the scene.
This intersection has become a frequent trouble spot. Over the past 30 days, LTA data shows 13 incidents here, with 6 classified as major. Expand that window to 90 days, and the count climbs to 52 total incidents—26 of them major. Over the past 12 months, the location has recorded 115 crashes, with 48 rated as major. The frequency of serious collisions at this intersection sets it apart from many others across Harris County.
Broader state records paint an even longer picture. According to TxDOT CRIS public crash records, this corridor has experienced 297 crashes since January 2020, including 2 fatalities. Contributing factors as recorded by investigating officers, per TxDOT CRIS, show "Failed To Control Speed" as the leading factor, cited in 60 crashes. The hit-and-run rate at the location stands at 10.9 percent—68 of 626 units involved in crashes here fled the scene.
Friday's weather was clear—broken clouds, 86 degrees—so conditions weren't a factor in this particular incident. That doesn't diminish the broader pattern: crashes here occur at varied times rather than concentrating in a single window. The busiest hour historically is 7 to 8 AM, when three crashes have occurred, though collisions happen throughout the day. Mondays see the most activity over a 90-day span, with six incidents recorded.
Detailsof the specific vehicles, injuries, and lane closures from Friday's crash were not immediately available. Responding officers cleared the scene, and traffic flow gradually returned to normal. Drivers using this intersection should remain alert—the data here speaks for itself.
