they've picked up the orange cones and the sign board. this is video what have it looks like 12 hours ago when a water manl break caused a big rush of water to come out of the street around stephen's creek and highway 85 intersection in cooper due know. deputies had to shut down traffic westbound and the southbound highway 85 off-ramp to stephen's creek. drivers had to drive around the mess while san jose water repairs the break. luckily it's a holiday weekend and it impacted fewer people than it would have had it been a regular weekend. it's quite, was quite a mess. it's unclear what caused that water main break. whether it was related somehow to the napa quake, but certainly cities have been grappling with the older infrastructure all around california. and back here live. there's that fresh patch of asphalt there, that's where the repair work happened. again the area around stephen's creek and highway 85 is back open.

a lot earlier than expected right after that water main break. live in cupertino, nannette miranda, "today in the bay." >> thanks a lot. and work on 280 cube finished sooner than planned. caltrans says upgrades going quicker than expected. it could be done some time today. they're replacing two bridge hinges. from the 101 interchange to the king street exit. all northbound lanes are shut down. southbound lanes are not affected. it's 4:33, san francisco commuters take note, take effect today. only some riders will be impacted. fare for adults liming to $2.25, adult fast passes increasing by $4. seniors, youth, and the disabled will not change. these are the first fare increases in four years. san francisco police are looking for a driver who will shot a man in a possible case of
