Bay Area Freeway Lanes Closing Friday To Monday

SAN RAMON, CA — The three left lanes of southbound I-680 will close between Alcosta Boulevard in San Ramon and the I-580/680 connector in Pleasanton Friday evening through Monday, June 3.

The three left lanes and the express lane will be closed from 9 p.m. Friday to 4 a.m. Monday. The two right lanes will remain open, but drivers are encouraged to take alternate routes to ease congestion. Northbound I-680 and the 580/680 exchange corridor will remain open, but the far-left lane and left shoulder of northbound 680 between Amador Valley Boulevard in Dublin and Alcosta Boulevard in San Ramon will be closed.

The work is part of a larger project to repair pavement on I-680. Each weekend closure will accomplish the amount of work that would otherwise require roughly 40 nighttime closures, Caltrans said. Drivers are asked to use caution to avoid construction vehicles.

California Highway Patrol officers and message signs will be available to guide motorists. See here for a list of alternate routes.
