LIVERMORE, Calif. (KRON) — An overturned big-rig is causing severe traffic delays on eastbound I-580 on Wednesday morning.
The incident blocked all lanes around 5 a.m. as the region and roadways are also soaked by rain. Two lanes were reopened by 7 a.m. and officials were able to turn it back upright as of 8 a.m.
Authorities said another truck was involved but was able to drive off. But the overturned truck has to be unloaded before it can be rolled back onto its tires.
A fuel spill clean-up will also continue delays, at least for another 1-2 hours.
According to California Highway Patrol, the driver was minorly injured and is being treated at the hospital.
