Multiple mudslides forced the closure of Patterson Pass and Tesla Road Monday afternoon.
Two roads east of Livermore closed by mudslides on Monday afternoon have reopened, according to the Alameda County Public Works Agency.

A mudslide on Patterson Pass Road was reported at about 3:25 p.m. Monday just east of Cross Road, according to the California Highway Patrol. Later, several mudslides on Tesla Road forced the closure of that road as well.
Traffic was detoured back to Interstate Highway 580 as crews worked on clearing mud from the roadway.
