Slide collapses portion of Niles Canyon Road near Sunol

A portion of Niles Canyon Road/State Road 84 between Sunol and Fremont was shut down because of a partial collapse of the roadway, the California Highway Patrol said Monday.

The CHP Dublin office posted a photo of the road collapse on social media just before 7 a.m., which it said has closed eastbound Niles Canyon Road indefinitely.  

Caltrans was responding to road collapse and the CHP told drivers to expect major delays along the major roadway between Interstate Highway 680 and State Road 238.

More information was to come later Monday, the CHP said.
