Gas line rupture shuts Interstate 580 traffic near Livermore
A ruptured natural gas line near Livermore caused an hour long detour on Interstate 580. A construction machine gash disrupted a transmission main serving Livermore Valley and Fremont, prompting rapid response by CHP and local fire crews.
