Fuel spill crash snarls traffic on westbound I-80 at MacArthur Maze in Oakland

OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- A major crash and fuel spill at the MacArthur Maze in Oakland blocked lanes and caused significant traffic delays on Westbound I-80 Tuesday morning.

The two right lanes on the westbound Interstate 80 connector ramp were closed following the crash and fuel spill at 2:40 a.m., which triggered a SigAlert.

After hours of lane closures, the lanes have reopened, but traffic impacts were still being seen at 11 a.m.
