Bay Bridge closes; cable lets loose on eastern span before 'S curve; Traffic backed up miles



THE SF-OAKLAND BAY BRIDGE IS A MESS.

AP: Bridge expected to be closed for 'at least 24 hours."

A cable associated with the i-bar that was damaged during the Labor day shutdown, fell onto the westbound direction at 5: 30 local time, damaging two cars. No serious injury was reported, but the cable accident caused a massive traffic mess, stretching miles in both directions.

Caltrans has now decided to CLOSE THE BRIDGE. There have been reports that the bridge will be closed well into the night and according to the AP, for at least 24 hours...

Developing story...
