8:31 am
trying to get from san leandro up to oakland. we have multiple traffic collisions now. one-two punch there that is sending a standstill traffic all the way down to nearly actually and at this point. so i'd advise you take 80 is instead of 5.80. again, that's from san leandro up to oakland. as for the san mateo bridge, it's 21 minutes to get you across a little bit of a slow roll there. the richmond center fell. we've got a 27 minute drive heading westbound. that's because of a disabled vehicle. mid span that is having the right lane blocked and really sending a backup. that's why it's such a long drive time and the golden gate bridge. 36 minutes from nevado down to the toll plaza. we also have an incident. a traffic collision. 101, southbound right at the intersection of 5.81.
