Freeway Closure Planned This Weekend -- Will This Disrupt Your Travel Plans?
Lanes will close starting Friday night through Monday morning for ongoing pavement work.
SAN RAMON, CA — 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 the morning of Monday, May 20, and Friday, May 31, 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 in each closure. 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.
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.
