Im tori campbell. Crews are still working to repair power lines and street lights after a big rig slammed into them early today. Ktvus janine de la vega has been on the scene all morning and joins us live from san jose to let us know when the street is expected to open to traffic. Good afternoon, janine. Reporter good afternoon. Electricians are working right now to try to get these traffic lights up and running here on Stevens Creek near the 880 ramps. This is a very busy intersection near the mall and santana row. Were hearing it could stay closed until at least 5 00 tonight. The accident started at 6 30, a caravan of big rigs was hauling portable classrooms. One of them hit power lines attached to street lights. Live wires were strewn near the on and offramps of 880 along Stevens Creek. It was frightening for the driver behind. We werent expecting trouble. All of the other trucks exactly the same height as this one went through the intersection no problem. All of a sudden, there was a loud crash and the telephone pole and the lights came out into the intersection and made a big mess. Reporter police immediately shut down Stevens Creek in both directions. It caused a packup for morning commuters who had to take detours. Theres a slowdown on 880 approaching the exit because the ramps remained close. Pg e crews deactivated the wires and caltrans and other wires came to the scene to start the lengthy repair process. Were working to get the traffic back onto the road and thats not gonna happen until were able to get Traffic Signals working. Reporter that Police Lieutenant told me traffic lights were already temporary because theres construction going on at the interchange. He wasnt sure there were regulations on how low the wires were hanging. Thats a possible explanation why the big hit the power lines. This intersection controls traffic coming off the highway. Police are just waiting for these electrics to fin electricians to finish the job which may not be before the afternoon commute. Its probably a good idea to avoid the area. We ran into a driver who stopped here at the mall and was sort of lost. He said there were not signs on the freeway alerting him to this. So he was lost and trying to figure out how to detour all of this. So again, good idea to a void the area. Report to avoid the area.
