Oakland area so this is northbound 880 at the 5th street off ramp. Jackknifed semi, that is blocking the two right lanes right now. It does sound like there are injuries involved so emergency crews arriving on the scene. Two left lanes are open and im just hearing about another crash, a vehicle lost control, hit the Center Divide there and then bounced back into the far left lane just north of this one. It is treacherous out there this morning. Slow down and drive for conditions. Were looking at a ninemile average. 580 looking good if youre not driving a big rig and well about that.

The initial fear was that the 30 ton concrete pump would fall off the side of the building. As well as the 1 ton concrete slab that stood adjacent to the platform. By standers took no chances. Construction crews rarely call 911, and when they do, the incident is usually a big deal. Which is why they took the drastic measures they did. Did they do the right thing stopping work when they did . Absolutely. The alternative to that i
