The Santa Barbara County Fire Department responded to a collision between two semi-trucks on Highway 101 northbound near Mariposa Reina in Gaviota.
One of the semi-trucks was delivering a power pole while the other has a standard boxed trailer.
One of the drivers sustained a minor injury and was transferred to Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital.
Extended cleanup forced the closure of the lanes, but one lane is currently open.

CHP reports just before 11:00 a.m. Monday that two semi-trucks collided in northbound lanes just south of Mariposa Reina in Gaviota.
There’s heavy fog in the area and traffic is stopped.
One truck driver reports he was rear-ended by the other truck, both requesting a tow.
Lots of traffic backup in the area.
