Caltrans says Highway 50 at Ice House Road is expected to be closed until 6:00 a.m. Sunday, February 12. This is an estimate and will depend on time it will take to clear the massive slide of mud and boulders.
Once open the road will be one-way controlled traffic.
On the North Shore, I80 will open to traffic in both directions at 1:00 p.m. Saturday. Expect heavy traffic.
One vehicle was caught in the mudslide Friday at Ice House Road. The occupants, a man, woman and dog from the San Jose area, were unharmed.
