It was not 3 days but more like 3 or 4 months on a no bid contract. They did get it open however. Gas tanker blew up the overpass.

That's the one. I thought it was a gas tanker, but wasn't sure.
Thanks for setting me straight. 3 days, yeah, I hadn't had coffee yet.
I was there in Oakland when the Nimitz collapsed, and all in all that took years, so when I heard what the tanker had done I thought things would be super disrupted for a long time.

I thought at the time I heard they had repaired it, that it was done quite fast considering the massiveness and complexity of that interchange.
