thank you. a three alarm fire this morning at a private school in oakland. the school is on webster street in the downtown area. when firefighters arrived they found the building filled with smoke. they had trouble finding the source of the fire so additional units were called from two other fire stations. firefighters finally managed to figure out where that fire started. >> sounds like it was sort of a small utility room and it is near the heating ventilation area. so that pushed the smoke throughout the building and then there is also a basement area that we had a hard time locating so that took a lot of extra time. >> firefighters say the building is old but has been renovated and divided. the back of the building is where the private school is located. while they know where the fire started firefighters are now looking into the cause of the fire. expect some delays if you're planning on driving across the golden gate bridge. at 8 p.m.

tonight southbound and northbound connections to the bridge in san francisco will be closed. the closure is part of a mult million dollar construction project. that is supposed to take doyle drive safe during earthquakes. during tonight's closure workers will complete the transition from temporary traffic lanes to the new permanent route. everything is scheduled to reopen tomorrow morning at 11 a.m. 17 hours in and los angeles is still standing tonight. cal-trans shut down one of the busiest freeways at midnight last night. so far l.a. seems to be surviving carmageddon. >> reporter: juliette, the potential for traffic nightmares the reason why they dubbed this carmageddon but it turned into carma heaven.

it is a joy for the first time anybody can remember to drive around los angeles. a project has shut down a 10- mile stretch of interstate 405 in los angeles. a vital connector between the san fernando valley and l.a. basin. construction to remove the mullholland bridge started friday night. drivers have been obsessing about it for weeks. but so far carmageddon appears to be a bust. the hype is out driving the hastle. >> haven't had any traffic today. >> are you kind of surprised? >> very. >> traffic is running normal. i'm shocked. >> reporter: this is a site. it easily carries up to a half million vehicles to the beaches, airport and other expressways on a typical july weekend. this weekend drivers are hunting for detours and other things to do. >> if you can't drive were not ride your bike, right? >> reporter: construction crews appear to be cruising through

their assignment. >> the project is progressing as planned. traffic is cooperating. and it is moving freely. >> reporter: transportation officials hope the project will steer drivers into their local neighborhoods where businesses hope to cash in. >> we figured we may as well be in the eye of the storm on foot. >> reporter: cal-trans promises this short term discomfort will be worth it for the long haul. a new 50-mile long car pool lane will help to reduce the driving time down the road. the 405 is expected to reopen in time for the monday morning rush. we are back out live now and crews continue to nip away at that bridge that is at the center of this weekend's construction project and weekend closure of the 405. things are going so well in fact, many expect the 405 will reopen well before monday morning. live in los angeles, back to you. >> thank you. 300,000 homes selling as

low as $65,000. now is your chance to get in on it. the abundance of homes in california selling at a fraction of the cost. >> i have a card. i don't like them in the lawn. a tough job but someone has got to do it. one city's secret weapon against gophers. well, temperatures are still cool and that fog will be returning tonight. but we do have warmer weather in store. i've got your pinpoint forecast next. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
