Overview
- A Learjet 60 crashed into Military Trail in Greenacres on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2026, killing nine people and leaving a large burning debris field and a deep crater in the roadway.
- Investigators excavated and examined the site before repairs could begin, which extended road closures and delayed restoration work.
- The Florida Department of Transportation said crews filled the crater and repaired utilities and that two inside northbound lanes were reopened after overnight work on Nov. 12.
- FDOT identifies restoration of the southbound lanes as the most complex remaining task before full two-way traffic can resume.
- Nearby businesses report steep customer losses since the crash and are applying for Palm Beach County grant assistance as repairs continue and traffic patterns remain disrupted.
