A mudslide was reported in the Claremont Hills in the area of Sports Lane and the Clark Kerr campus. UC Berkeley Police asked people to avoid the area.issued this morning advised residents in the area of Middlefield Road, Wildcat Canyon Road and The Spiral to be prepared to evacuate, the Berkeley Police Department told SFGATE. The alert also asked people to avoid the area.
Berkeley Councilmember Susan Wengraf told SFGATE the mudslide in the Park Hills neighborhood occurred at about 6 a.m. and seven homes were evacuated. One home was red-tagged on Middlefield Road, Wengraf said.The Spiral — a short road off Wildcat Canyon Road — and Middlefield Road north of the Crossways, are both closed, Berkeley police said in an advisory.
Wildcat Canyon Road between Sunset and Park Hills roads is also closed due to a mudslide. Authorities responded to the area shortly after 7 a.m. The ground is still moving and trees can be heard cracking from the slide, Berkeley Fire Battalion Chief Bill Kehoe said around 9 a.m. An Oakland police officer just said the Oakland Public Works looked at Alvarado Road slide and said it is so big that the city will have to hire a contractor to clean it up. So the road will be closed for a bit.
