FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Interstate
80-Vacaville-Dixon Rehabilitation Project
Overnight
Concrete Work Starts
SOLANO COUNTY-
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will begin cracking
sections of concrete on eastbound and westbound Interstate 80 between Vacaville
and Dixon starting Wednesday, June 5th. The work is part of the I-80 Vacaville-Dixon
Rehabilitation Project. The process will allow crews to repave the old I-80 roadway
allowing for a safer and smoother drive.
Concrete work:
The work will require overnight cracking of concrete pavement
with a mechanical hammer near rural areas but may also affect some residents
and businesses along I-80 in Dixon and Vacaville. Construction noise will be
unavoidable; however, it will be kept within approved construction noise
levels. Overnight lane closures will be required.
The work is from the Meridian Road exit to the Highway 113
exit along eastbound and westbound I-80 in Solano County.
Overnight Work
Schedule:
Work on eastbound I-80 is scheduled to start Wednesday, June
5th until Wednesday, June 12th each night starting at 10
p.m. until 6 a.m. the following mornings, except for Sunday nights. The
eastbound work is scheduled for completion the morning of June 13th.
Work on westbound I-80 is scheduled to start Thursday, June
13th until Friday, June 19th each night starting at 10
p.m. until 5 a.m. the following mornings, except for Sunday nights. The
westbound work is slated for completion June 20th at 5 a.m.
Over time, the roadway has deteriorated requiring complete
rehabilitation. Night work will minimize traffic delays on I-80 during the busy
morning and afternoon commute times. It will also allow crews to complete work
without impacting daytime traffic.
