Jenner even took to twitter to warn people about the dangerous knockoff. Homeland security says cosmetics seized in the past have contain things like arsenic, mercury, lead. Congestion, confusion, and cancer. The bay area stop and go traffic is not only frustrating it can be dangerous. All eon ago basil tells us help is on the way to reduce accidents and ease traffic jams at a major bottleneck in the east bay. Reporter lets face it, any form of relief on the roadway can ease traffic. After talking with so many fed up drivers we knew we needed to get some answers from transportation officials. Tonight they are sharing with us plans to ease congestion and decrease accidents. It has become routine. Sudden breaking, constant beeping, dangerous weaving, its all part of the commute for dry valley neighbors. Is a total mess. Its unacceptable. Reporter what has got these driver so frustrated is the 5 80 680 interchange. When she dropped on a 580 going eastbound, it is a parking. That interchange is a disaster. You have the time coming, people who want to switch sides, theres always an accident there all the time. Reporter disaster can quickly turn deadly, like it did here. The driver of this bmw never made it to work him after they were rear ended i a big rig just before 6 a. M. On 580 west near courtyard road in dublin. California Highway Patrol says the big rig was going 50 Miles Per Hour and never stopped before the crash. It caused the Chain Reaction hitting 4 other vehicles causing them to catch fire. Several people were injured, one person was killed. That crash is just one of 72 total accidents, this year alone, on that 580 680 interchange according to chp. Over the past 10 years, this busy stretch of highway saw a peak of accidents in 2006, and 2007 before the economy crashed into thousand eight. Again, we are in another period of Economic Growth in the tri valley creating more congestion on the interchange. The 580 border is very busy brings the whole Central Valley to the bay area.

Reporter she tells me voters approved 20 million to address the mass on 680. We are about to embark on a study to determine what the final design shall look like, and what the Construction Costs would be for the project. Reporter some drivers i spoke with acceptable, concerned with the timing of his ability to fix the problem. They cannot expand the lanes anymore, theres not enough room. They are going to have to go multilevel. They will just have to start stacking a freeway on top of a freeway to handle the load. Its not going to get any better. Reporter what would you and the Transportation Commission say to drivers who feel like we see that there is a project in the works, but its not enough, what can we do . One single project is not going to solve all of the transportation issues in the bay area. We are working on a whole suite of projects. We are working on the 680 northbound lanes right now. We just open the 580 express lanes, we are seeing people having 2030 minutes savings, in those lanes. Reporter drivers and commuters looking for a quick temporary fix will see some relief and sooner rather than later with a project in the works . That is correct. We will be constructing the 680 northbound lanes starting next year. There will be relief in a couple of years. Reporter still, for many drivers who spend most of their day, five days a week, gassing then breaking, beeping and merging, and a couple of years, still too long. I do not stress about it anymore. Its part of living in this part of california. It is just the way it is. Reporter the first days of phase of the project, is expected to start sometime in february. After that, the Allegheny CountyTransportation Commission will be looking for additional funding for the project which could cause cost upwards of 1 billion. Thank you. That guy has the right attitude though. Its part of living in california, we have a lot of other attributes, i guess to be thankful for. You have to sit in traffic a lot of times. Absolutely right, we do have traffic that is slow all the way from the altamonte pass into that dublin interchange that she spoke of. This mornings commute is going to be slow, stop and go at the altamonte pass. Crowded but not stop and go yet at the 580 680 interchange of what we call the tracy super commute. Not a bad commute as all at all as you drive through. Traffic will be busy on the rest of the valley still looks good. Looking at interstate 880 north and southbound, it is off to a nice start on this friday as you drive past the coliseum. We do not have a backup at the bay bridge toll plaza yet.
