Caltrans has shut down a major corridor in the East Bay this weekend for repaving work.
Southbound Interstate 680's full closure between the I-580-680 connector in Pleasanton and Koopman Road in Sunol went into effect at 9 p.m. Friday and it will last through 4 a.m. Monday, the agency said.
It's the latest part of a prolonged project to replace deteriorated pavement on I-680 in the Tri-Valley area, Caltrans said.
The full weekend closure is the last one scheduled for southbound I-680 in that area. But work will continue on the freeway through the year during nighttime lane closures, Caltrans said.
There will be more full weekend closures of southbound I-680 in San Ramon later this year, the agency said.
Northbound I-680 will remain open and won't be affected by this weekend's closure.
