Highway 101 near the Laguna Street northbound exit was closed for about 90 minutes early Monday after two cars crashed.

The cars collided about 8:24 a.m. A black Toyota Camry blocked the middle lane of the highway following the crash, sources said.

Two of three lanes were blocked, which backed up traffic. No injuries were reported.

The roadway was cleared and opened at 9:42 a.m, according to a post on CHP Santa Barbara’s X account.
