As of 4:30 pm multiple first responders and law enforcement vehicles are on the Fairview Bridge and traffic appears to be blocked in both directions from crossing the bridge.

The freeway appears to be moving as usual however and vehicles were able to enter the freeway.

Alternate routes should be sought for the time being. We’ll update with information as it becomes available.
