Caltrans to Close San Mateo-Hayward Bridge Memorial Day Weekend May 22-25

San Mateo and Alameda Counties – Caltrans will close the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge Memorial Day Weekend, May 22-25. The full closure for all eastbound and westbound lanes will begin at 10:00 PM on Friday and continue until 5:00 AM on Monday. (Memorial Day) There will be westbound lane closures as early as 7:00 PM and eastbound lane closures as early as 8:00 PM

NOTE: The bridge will re-open Monday morning by 5:00 AM

The full closure will allow crews to complete resurfacing a portion of the deck structure. The activities will help prolong the service life of the bridge.

In the eastbound direction (Foster City) the on-ramps from Edgewater Boulevard and Metro Center Boulevard will be closed. In the westbound direction (Hayward) the on-ramps from Industrial Boulevard and Clawiter Road will be closed. All off-ramps will remain open. Mainline traffic will be guided to exit eastbound 92 at Foster City Boulevard and westbound 92 at Clawiter Road.

NOTE: Motorists will be able to travel up to the westbound off-ramp at Clawiter Road, and as far as the off-ramp at Foster City Boulevard during the closures.

Changeable message signs are posted throughout the Bay Area to notify motorist of the upcoming closure.
