6:16 am
this same location just south of that crash there and it is definitely going to keep drivers very slow, so if you're getting ready to head out the door and this is typically your normal route, instead of trying to use that one lane, i would still head on over to 580. you will be in good company but it is still moving right at the limit there and we will get a quick check of those travel times here in just one moment. but chp has advised that the big rigs, use 580 at this point. we have seen a big backup over at the bay bridge toll plaza. we did have a couple of earlier problems across the upper deck of the bay bridge. things look like they are starting to clear up but slow again as you are approaching fremont street. one car possibly blocking that off-ramp there. northbound 880 from 238 towards the maze, just under a 30 minute ride except that's likely to get much worse now that they have opened that lane there and along 580 for drivers who would like to use that as an alternate route, that remains in the green.
