Caltrans will be closing the eastbound lanes of Highway 84 on the Dumbarton Bridge at night starting Monday, allowing crews to do repaving work.
Those closures will happen nightly from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m., Monday through Friday.
Detours during the Dumbarton Bridge closures
During those closures, Caltrans recommends the following routes:
- Drivers heading to the East Bay from San Francisco or the Peninsula can take the San Mateo Bridge, on Highway 92, from San Mateo to Hayward.
- Drivers heading to Milpitas of Fremont from the South Bay can take Calaveras Boulevard on Highway 237.
Why are the closures happening?
Crews are replacing the roadway from the end of the bridge to the toll plaza, which Caltrans said is aimed at making it a smoother drive.
Caltrans is closing the eastbound lanes of Highway 84 on the Dumbarton Bridge this week, as well as the southbound lanes of a section of Interstate 680. Raj Mathai speaks with Caltrans spokesperson Janis Mara to learn more.
