Command, Engine 41, Engine 541 are on scene. Do you want us to circle around and look at Eby Road? Yeah, it's affirmed. You guys hear that traffic? Looks like off Del Paso, you can hook up with the East Levy and come in from the other direction. Chief, we're going to head up to Elkhorn and then go south on East Levy.

I mean, it looks like Del Paso Road hooks up with the East Levee, and that would be close to where you're at, but I'm not sure on the access on that access point. Affirm. Well, this bridge is taking a lot of heat and looks potentially unstable. The fire is extending all the way across to the other side at this time. We could have maybe some crews look at access points from the other side of this.
