I-80 Carquinez Bridge Fender
Replacement Project
Eastbound Lane Closures Planned for Tonight
CONTRA COSTA AND SOLANO COUNTIES – Tonight,
Caltrans will begin a concrete pour for the I-80 Carquinez Bridge Fender
Replacement Project. Construction
equipment will be deployed on the bridge which will require lane closures on
eastbound I-80 just prior to the Carquinez Bridge, it will continue onto the
bridge itself and the toll plaza.
Lane closures will be as follows:
·
Between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m., one
lane will be closed on eastbound I-80 beginning just before the Carquinez
Bridge.
·
Between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., a
second lane of eastbound I-80 will be closed on the Carquinez Bridge just after
the Crockett onramp.
·
After midnight, if needed, a
third lane of eastbound I-80 will be closed on the Carquinez Bridge.
·
During these closures, at least
one eastbound lane will remain open at all times.
·
By 8 a.m., all eastbound lanes
will be open.
The construction
activities are weather dependent. If
work is cancelled due to weather, it will be rescheduled.
Motorists may experience
delays. Caltrans will use portable changeable message signs to alert motorists
about the closures. The California Highway Patrol will also be on site to
assist with traffic control.
Caltrans apologizes for any inconvenience this work may cause and
asks that motorists continue to “Slow for the Cone Zone.”
