Hour but ill give you the good news first and that is our bridges look really good so heading into San Francisco this morning, no delays for you at the bay bridge toll plaza it is picking up more folks are rolling in, but no big problems so were still at an easy 7 minutes off to the fremont street exit were off to 92 and its much busier and our busiest bridge right now we have a crowd, lets itself on the flat section but that is the norm, so youre averaging a very quick 12 minutes to the peninsula. Heres the trouble spot left over from the 4 oclock hour injury crash 80 north at to kowtow so coming out of fremont into union city weve gone from having all lanes blocked to just the right lane. It was a multi vehicle accident and car fire. The right lane is still closed your backup tore thornton but thats really not too bad as i zoom out you can see that as soon as you pass the crash the rest of the trip continuing north will be fine on through union city and hayward well check out some mo
Smoke pushed back into the bay area. Now the latest on a Traffic Alert on 880. Yeah, its a couple of rs tangled up here and traffic is still slow. They had all lanes blocked though northbound 880 right at da toe that. The good news is theyve opened upmost of them. They are though keeping at least one or two of these slow lanes the right lanes closed until they completely clear everything off the roadway. Looks like there may be some debris in the road as well. So caltrans crews are also on scene. So a bit of a slow ride working your way along 880 for the early start to your ride. If you are headed there, just a headsup. Expect the brake lights out of fremont and gets a little bit better as you go to more in the union city area. If you are headed towards 680 or 238 you can use that, those are free flowing both directions. Westbound 580, a busy ride already out of the Altamont Pass. Were seeing our slowest spot right around Mountain House. From 2035 and it stays slow to north flynn. Anne
