Drivers in the East Bay, take note: a stretch of southbound I-680 is shutting down for the weekend for road repairs from 9 p.m. on Friday through 4 a.m. on Monday. The closure stretches from Pleasanton to Sunol, and Caltrans is warning about potentially lengthy delays if you get caught up in the detours.
"We thank motorists for your patience as we work to improve the highway," said Janis Mara, a Caltrans spokesperson. "Folks familiar with that roadway know it’s full of potholes, it’s not the greatest." Caltrans said it opted to do all the work at once to avoid the alternative, which was 40 nighttime closures. "When the roadway reopens Monday at 4 a.m., it will be a smooth ride for motorists," said Mara.
Motorists on southbound I-680 in Concord can take SR-4 to I-80 to southbound I-880.4. Motorists on southbound I-680 in Walnut Creek can take SR-24 to I-80 to southbound I-880.5. Motorists on Southbound I-680 in Danville take westbound I-580 to SR-238 to southbound I-880.6. Motorists on Southbound I-680 in Danville take eastbound I-580 to SR-84 to southbound I-680.7.
