Fire crews from Dixon and Vacaville are battling a two-alarm grass fire near the freeway between the two cities.
The fire broke out Monday afternoon near the east-bound lanes of Interstate 80 close to the Midway Road off-ramp.
There were initial reports that the fire had crossed multiple lanes of the freeway, but a Solano NewsNet reporter driving through the area found the fire was contained to just one side of the interstate.
No structures were threatened by the blaze, and forward progress of the fire was stopped just after 4 p.m.
The cause of the fire was not immediately known.
