a key road for some east bay residents collapses, leaving them stranded. why engineers say there is nothing they could do. >> neighborhoods in san jose get the all clear to return to their homes. ktvu fox 2 news at 6:00 starts now. good evening i'm ken wayne. >> i'm maureen naylor. heather holmes is off tonight. residents in a rural part of contra costa county are trying to figure out what to do next after a landslide destroyed a part of the road that has them cut off from the rest of town. >> contra costa officials met today with homeowners on morgan territory road near clayton. ktvu leigh martinez joins us live. leigh, county officials fear the entire road could go any time, right? >> reporter: yes. the situation has gotten much worse. the only way on to morgan territory road if you live back there is walking through this barricade. then once you get around the

barricades there's a problem. the crack today is much bigger. we're seeing more of the road slip down. now the low is the creek. what we're being told by public works the creek is cutting into the side of the hill. it's eroding the side of the hill. that's contributing to the collapse, plus you have the collapse on top of the hill, the landslide on top of the hill. so everyone is worried this road is going to eventually just completely collapse. that's why public works could not get in to repair the road and it is why they cannot get in to repair the broken water main. that means everyone who lives back here, they do not have running water. >> the night before this all started my wife and i were driving. i looked. wow what's the line in the road? >> reporter: patrick duggan is talking about this line in morgan territory road. the moving land is forcing the road off the hill and breaking the area's water -- and broke the area's water main. >> i fear there was water underneath.

>> reporter: taking us above the road you can see where the landslide starts. >> all the roots have pulled away from the rest of the land all the way through here and all the way down about 100 feet. this little section just ripped away. >> reporter: on friday evening the road collapsed cutting off the main way into clayton. >> i was coming home and i got trapped on this side. my husband was home that day, so his car is on the other side. so he drives down the hill a mile and then we walk the the distance. i don't know, maybe a quarter mile to get my car and head out to the store. >> reporter: it's getting much worse with each day. e residents -- residents pointed how far the road has moved. >> i was surprised. i came up with one of my buddies and thought how bad could this be. i have lived here for a long time and i did not think it would be as pronounced as it is. >> reporter: contra costa county can't fix it because the land is still moving. this leaves some residents and their ranches without running

water. >> the horse alone takes 150 gallons a day they said. so one horse. we need to get water out there. >> reporter: county officials want to discuss gaining access through a road on private property. but even if they don't have permission to use the private leon drive, they say emergency plans are in place. >> if there were medical emergencies out here, we would be able to evacuate very quickly. i don't want residents to worry about that. >> how would they be evacuated? an ambulance out here? >> a helicopter. >> county officials met with locals this afternoon. there's no timeline for when water will come back to their homes or when the roads will reopen. >> reporter: now one positive thing, pg&e was able to reroute the power lines, so the power right here is not active. they were able to reroute it. everyone back here does have power, they just don't have running water. because things are looking much worse, public works is saying it could be shortly, they might

have to block off the road completely even to foot traffic. >> leigh, do they have any plans? any plans on how to get a large amount of water in to some of these people? >> reporter: see that's the problem. they did bring in some water coming through with their trucks on the other side, which means you need to go through livermore. that's the entrance point on morgan territory road. but it's a one-lane road, it is very narrow and hard for trucks to get in. of course residents are worried too because they have had landslides back there too. they're worried it has started to rain. if we have more wet weather then they will have problems on that side and be completely blocked in here. so they do have that water set up here, but it's just not enough for the animals. so that is something the water department, public works, they're all working together to kind of tackle this issue. but they don't have an answer just yet. but it is something they have to work on. >> all right, thank you. leigh martinez reporting live in contra costa county tonight.
