Kasson Road, north of Durham Ferry Road, collapsed earlier this week after a retention pond breach that caused a high volume of water to erode the bank under the road, Robert Rickman, chairman of the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors, said in a social media post.

Yellow caution tape placed alongside the missing roadway blocked vehicles from passing in either direction.

Rickman said the county's Department of Public Works was working to get the road open as soon as possible.
