Interstate 80 connector in West Sacramento blocked after big rig crash
THAT’S COMING UP IN TEN MINUTES. RIGHT NOW IT’S 802 WITH THE WET AND WINDY CONDITIONS ON THE ROADS. BRIAN, THERE ARE ISSUES. THERE ARE, AND I’LL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW FOR EACH TRAFFIC INCIDENT THAT I’M MENTIONING, THERE’S 2 TO 3 MORE THAT I’M NOT MENTIONING. THIS TIME ALLOWS. THIS IS A LOOK AT INTERSTATE 80 AS YOU’RE MAKING YOUR WAY OVER TOWARDS HIGHWAY 50. THIS IS WHERE WE HAVE AN OVERTURNED BIG RIG BLOCKING THE TRANSITION RAMP. MIKE TESELLE JUST ARRIVED IN THAT AREA AND HAS A LIVE PICTURE AND REPORT FROM THAT AREA. MIKE. YEAH, AND BRIAN, WE’RE REALLY HERE TO GIVE YOU A VISUAL OF WHAT YOU’VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT. WE’RE ALONG WEST CAPITOL. AS YOU LOOK UP. THAT IS THAT TRANSITION FROM 80 OVER TOWARDS EASTBOUND HIGHWAY 50. THIS SPOT IS ALMOST EXACTLY THREE QUARTERS OF A MILE FROM REID AVENUE. SO THAT BACKUP IS SIGNIFICANT TRYING TO GET HERE. THIS IS THAT ELEVATED PORTION THAT COMES UP OVER AND THEN CONNECTS BACK WITH HIGHWAY 50. YOU CAN SEE ALL THE FLASHING LIGHTS AND THE CREWS THAT ARE ON SCENE HERE WORKING TO UPRIGHT AND THEN MOVE THAT BIG RIG. BUT THIS IS THAT ACCIDENT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, BRIAN. THESE ARE THE EYES WE HAVE ON IT HERE FROM THE GROUND FOR THIS, YOU KNOW, BIG RIG CRASH THAT, AS YOU MENTIONED, JUST ONE OF MULTIPLE INCIDENTS THAT CONTINUE TO KEEP HAPPENING. SO I’M GOING TO GET RIGHT BACK TO YOU TO CONTINUE WITH THAT TRAFFIC COVERAGE. ALL RIGHT, MIKE, THANKS FOR THE LIVE PICTURE FROM THAT AREA. AND AS MIKE INDICATED, IT IS BACKING UP TRAFFIC ACROSS THE BRIGHT BEND BRIDGE ON WESTBOUND 80. YOU CAN GET OVER TO THE CAUSEWAY FROM THERE, BUT IT’S THE TRANSITION RAMP TO EASTBOUND 50 WHERE YOU SEE PURPLE HERE. THAT’S THE ARE
