Southbound lanes of I-880 in Oakland reopened after early morning closure

A section of Interstate 880 in Oakland was closed all Saturday morning due to a crash.

Around 3:20 a.m., Caltrans sent an alert that all lanes were blocked just north of 16th Avenue. The closure was reportedly due to a big rig tanker crash.

The highway was reopened around just before 12:30 p.m.

The northbound lanes had remained open, but the closure on Saturday morning impacted traffic on the southbound lanes. Drivers were being diverted off I-880 to Oak and Embarcadero during the incident.
