California Commuters Are In For a Nightmare After Freeway Fire Damage Shuts Down Highway
A massive fire in California raged under the busy 10 Freeway for hours over the weekend, causing so much structural damage it’s now closed indefinitely in both directions.
The closure is set to make Los Angeles’ already notorious traffic a commuting nightmare for city residents. The 10 Freeway is used by more than 300,000 drivers daily, per ABC News.
“As we made clear yesterday, this was a huge fire, and the damage will not be fixed in an instant,” said Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass at a news conference Monday morning.
