Suspension, its the backup that you have to deal with behind the tolls on the oakland side thats just not fun and not improving so its through the mates 5. 80 the e sure but looking good on the suspension and the skyway so its not this congested all the way across and thats why it is under 15 minutes to make it off to fremont street. Other side of the bay a one on one approaching San Francisco. Well both directions north and south slow cesar chavez to 3rd and then 2. 80 still a bit busy out of daly city heading north north of highway, one to the one oh one split will check more coming up james. All right. Thank you very much robin happening today we are remembering the loma prieta earthquake which struck 30 years ago on this very day. The epicenter in the Santa Cruz Mountains but it caused devastation across the entire bay area as we look at some of the video there with sections of the upper deck of the old eastern span of the bay bridge collapsing onto the lower deck, dozens of people
To help the people on the cypress freeway, and it was also a reminder that the big one is yet to come. Right here where we are standing, 42 people perished in the cypress collapse. Reporter oakland mayor libby schaaf led ceremonies today honoring First Responders and citizens who went to help when violent shaking from the loma prieta deck brought the upper deck crashing down on to cars on the lower deck. And im watching telephone poles moving, and im watching streetlights bouncing up and down. Retired deputy fire chief mark hoffman was a outside fire station 1 when the quake struck. He and his crew sped to the collapsed freeway and immediately began the search for victims. I felt my best role was to bird dog and go from collapsed section to collapsed section, to try to get an assessment on how many bodies need to be rescued. Meantime, neighbors in the cypress mandela neighborhood also went to work. We moved quickly in the community to see what was going on and how we could help others.
