Reports came in around 4pm of a big rig hitting the bridge and cars ended up facing the wrong way in the left lane and middle lane.

Wood debris was reportedly spread across the lanes and one witness said the bridge looked “like it was about to come down.”

10 WEST is jammed from the 215.  Use the 60 WEST or 210 WEST.  However, keep in mind 215 in both directions is jammed between the 60 and 210.
