DUBLIN, CA — Although a portion of southbound I-680 will be closed for St. Patrick’s Day weekend, all Dublin exits of the freeway will remain open, the city said.

Still, the closures of the I-580/680 connector to Koopman Road, southbound Foothill Road, and southbound Pleasanton-Sunol Road are likely to create a thorny driving situation in the area. Here are some details about shuttles, parking, and more:

  • Free parking is available on Sierra Court and Clark Avenue, but space is limited
  • Lots are also available at 6375-6377 Clark Avenue, 6250 Village Parkway, 7051 Dublin Boulevard, 6400 Sierra Court (front lot only), 6640 Sierra Lane, and 5300 Central Parkway.
  • A free shuttle will run continuously from Carl Zeiss Meditec at 5300 Central Parkway to the festival at the Civic Center at 100 Civic Plaza.
  • Free and supervised bike valets are available for cyclists.
  • Wheels Bus 30R is providing free rides from both BART stations to the Civic Center.
  • See here for a list of road closures and times.
