All lanes of southbound Interstate 880 in Hayward reopened Friday morning after an overturned big-rig shut down the freeway for hours, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The crash occurred just north of Highway 92 and blocked all lanes of southbound I-880 just as the morning commute was getting started, the CHP said. All lanes reopened by about 7:30 a.m.

No injuries were reported, the CHP said.

It's the second straight morning an overturned semi truck has shut down a freeway in the East Bay. On Thursday, the northbound Highway 238 connector to southbound I-880 was closed for hours after a big-rig struck a median and overturned.
