I-10 in California near Desert Center OPEN and FLOWING

As of Friday afternoon, lanes have been open to two-way traffic at the site of last week's bridge collapse near Desert Center on I-10.

According to Google Maps and verified by several drivers through the site, traffic is surprisingly moving well.  Through the closure zone, speed limits are reduced to 45 MPH which help funnel the traffic from both directions into the 2 westbound lanes being used for through traffic.

Expect up to 30 minutes in delay, but at this point, it is not worth taking long alternate routes unless something else drastically changes.  Bon voyage!
