SAN ANTONIO — A huge diesel fuel spill in New Braunfels on Monday is expected to cause delays for several hours.

The fuel spill was reported early Monday morning on Solms Road between the I-35 frontage road and FM 482. That section of Solms Road was closed to begin the clean-up process.

The New Braunfels Fire Department says 100 gallons of fuel spilled on the road after a mechanical failure with the truck. The spill has been contained and crews are using absorbent material to help clean up the spill.
