β€’ Big Rig Overturns Across 210 in Claremont Area (mynewsla.com) β€” An overturned big rig on the 210 Freeway in Claremont early Monday blocked lanes in both directions near Baseline Road and spilled diesel fuel across the center divider. A SigAlert shut multiple HOV and eastbound lanes while crews responded, and one driver was hospitalized, so expect lingering delays and cleanup impacts around the freeway corridor.
