Gravel Spill Closes 3 Lanes On Highway 580 In Dublin

DUBLIN (CBS SF) -- A Sig-alert for the westbound lanes of Interstate Highway 580 in Dublin has been lifted Tuesday morning.

The California Highway Patrol reopened three of the highway's lanes, near the Dougherty Road exit at 6:06 a.m., after a gravel spill caused the CHP to close some of the highway's lanes.

Late Monday night, at 11:39 p.m., the California Highway Patrol first received a report of the gravel spill on the highway's westbound lanes, according to CHP officials.

At 3:16 a.m., Caltrans closed two of the lanes, as crews waited for a front loader truck to arrive to remove the gravel, CHP officials said.

At 4:46 a.m., the CHP issued a Sig-alert, closing three of the highway's lanes, according to the CHP. At the time, the CHP estimated the lanes would be closed for about two hours.
