UPDATE: Northbound Lanes of I-880 in Oakland Reopen After Repairs Completed

OAKLAND (CBS SF) -- Emergency repairs shut down northbound lanes of Interstate 880 in Oakland for hours Tuesday before lanes finally reopened shortly after 3:45 p.m., according to authorities.

The 511.org Twitter account first posted about the closure at around 10:45 a.m. Officials estimated that lanes would reopen at 4 p.m.

The closure meant tractor trailers would be allowed to use westbound I-580 in Oakland until lanes are reopened.

As of shortly after 3 p.m., Caltrans reported that the emergency lane closure for the two right lanes was ongoing. However, 511.org announced that all lanes had reopened as of about 3:47 p.m.

Drivers are advised to expect residual delays.
