SUNOL — A highway closure caused when a vehicle slammed into a telephone pole Tuesday night was lifted early Wednesday, the California Highway Patrol said.

The CHP did not have information on the condition of the driver or anyone else who may have been in the vehicle.

Both the east and west directions of Highway 84 were closed following the crash on the highway about 10:25 p.m. The highway was closed from the Interstate 680 junction to the Main Street exit.

A part of Pleasanton Sunol Road from Paloma Way to Kooman Road also was closed, according to the CHP.

The CHP said the lanes opened about 7:25 a.m. A Sig Alert for severe traffic issued by the agency had been in effect since about 1:30 a.m. while work crews replaced the pole.
