Vasco Road was closed in both directions Thursday night due to a wildfire near the border between Alameda and Contra Costa counties, authorities said.
At around 6:30 p.m., CHP reported that the fire had shut down traffic between Dalton Ave in Livermore and Camino Diablo in Contra Costa County. All northbound and southbound lanes of Vasco Rd. were blocked.
The CHP Dublin office also posted about the fire at 6:40 p.m., saying it was causing major traffic backups. Photos posted by the account appeared to show the fire extinguished, but the closure remained in place.
Motorists are advised to expect delays and use alternate routes to avoid the area. CHP said there is no estimated time to reopen the road.
