Major Tri-Valley Road Closure Planned This Weekend

Plan for a major backup in Livermore as drivers encounter the detour.

LIVERMORE — Caltrans plans to close all southbound I-680 lanes in Pleasanton between the I-580/I-680 connector and SR-84. That will put a lot of extra vehicles on Livermore roads.

The closures will be in place from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. on Tuesday to repair deteriorated pavement. This is a holiday weekend, for Martin Luther King Day on Monday.

Expect increased traffic on Highway 84, and Interstates 580 and 880 as traffic will be detoured to those roads.
