A section of road in Bethpage was reopened Thursday afternoon, almost a full day after a Wednesday crash that knocked down three utility poles, wires and transformers, Nassau County police said.
The single-vehicle crash occurred at the intersection of Hicksville Road and Wantagh Avenue at 5:51 p.m. Wednesday, police said. It forced the closure of Hicksville Road between Central Avenue and Brenner Avenue until early Thursday afternoon.
The driver of a blue 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe, whose identity was not released, was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said. No criminality was involved.
