FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nighttime Closures for Three Mile Slough Bridge Cancelled for
This Weekend
SACRAMENTO COUNTY – The threat of rain has prompted the cancellation of this weekend’s overnight closures on
State Highway 160 between Rio Vista and Antioch, according to
the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). The Three Mile Slough Bridge will be
open
Friday, February 28
through Saturday, February 29.
Motorists can expect future work postponement when wet weather forecasts are expected for the $2.98 million
bridge
deck
and control house rehabilitation project at Three Mile Slough Bridge. Caltrans advises local motorists and
residents to follow us on social media for the latest updates.
Over the next two months, the highway is
scheduled to be closed daily from
8 p.m. to 5 a.m. at Wilbur Avenue, south of
the
Antioch Toll Bridge, and at the junction with State Highway 12. Roadside message boards will be used to
alert
motorists of
the closures and signed detours will be
in place, but some motorists may need to drive as much as an additional 80 miles, or about two extra hours, to reach their destination. The schedule is subject to change due to
unexpected events or weather.
