Fallen power lines that were said to be on fire were reported just after 5:30 p.m. on Highway 175 at Forest Lake Drive, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Cal Fire, which responded to the scene, reported a small vegetation fire resulting from the downed lines.
Cal Fire notified Pacific Gas & Electric of the fallen lines, and PG&E handled a road closure that resulted in traffic being rerouted onto Golf Drive, the CHP reported.
The roadway was reopened shortly before 8 p.m. but then closed again later in the evening as PG&E crews worked at the site, according to reports from the scene.
