Cleanup of 6,000 gallons of gasoline on State Route 38, a main route to Big Bear Lake, is nearly complete and the roadway will reopen early Tuesday.

A big-rig tanker overturned Sept. 19 in the Angelus Oaks area.

The California Department of Transportation says a hazardous materials contractor has been working around the clock to remove contaminated soil. Swift initial response to the spill kept fuel from flowing into a creek that drains into the Santa Ana River.

Caltrans spokeswoman Terri Kasinga says State Route 138 will reopen at 5 a.m. Tuesday.

Highways 330 and 18 remained open as alternate routes for State Route 138 travelers in the San Bernardino Mountains.
