Eastbound state Highway 92 fully reopened near the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge on Thursday morning, hours after a big-rig caught fire in the area, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Around 11:55 p.m. Wednesday, patrol officers were alerted to reports of a big-rig with its trailer detached and burning on eastbound Highway 92 near the Foster City Boulevard off-ramp.
