PARSIPPANY, N.J. — A significant traffic disruption unfolded Thursday as Parsippany police closed a portion of Route 53/Tabor Road due to a large tree leaning dangerously on utility lines.

The closure affects the stretch between Route 10 and Pondview Road, prompting authorities to urge drivers to seek alternate routes.

Police reported the incident through an alert on social media, citing safety concerns as the primary reason for the shutdown.

Utility crews have been notified and are working to address the situation, though no timeline for reopening the road has been provided.

No injuries or power outages have been reported in connection with the incident.
