Eastbound 91 Freeway Still Closed
Eastbound lanes of the 91 Freeway remain closed after a tanker exploded, sending flames 100 feet into the air, this morning. Lanes are expected to reopen sometime later this evening. Westbound lanes reopened around 3 p.m. The incident, which left no one hurt, gridlocked Memorial Day weekend traffic for many leaving the area.
ABC7 recommends a couple driving alternatives: take the 57 Freeway north to the 60, 10 or 210 if you're headed east or using Interstate 15 north to the 60, 10 or 210 if you're going west.
