UPDATE: Fast work by CalTrans crews had Highway 12 open again by about 7:30 a.m. Shown here is part of the large oak that blew down, cut and dragged off the roadway.
ORIGINAL POST: Commuters were greeted this morning by a fallen oak tree, blocking both lanes of Highway 12 (Broadway) just north of the intersection with Highway 121. No word yet as to when Cal Trans expects to have the blockage cleared. Commuters are advised to take alternate routes. Watch this space for updates.
