Upcoming Closures Of Appian Way Overcrossing

To complete critical bridge maintenance, Caltrans construction is planning a long-term full closure of the southbound Appian Way overcrossing near Interstate 80 (I80) to replace and widen the bridge’s north abutment. However, before the closure begins, Caltrans will implement a full 55-hour weekend closure of both the northbound and southbound Appian Way overcrossing from 9pm Friday, November 13 – 4am Monday, November 16, to install the new traffic configuration for the southbound bridge closure.

During the weekend closure, all traffic will be prohibited on the Appian Way Overcrossing. By Monday morning, the northbound bridge will be converted to two-way traffic, with one lane in each direction, to accommodate traffic during the southbound bridge’s long-term closure.

The long-term closure of Southbound Appian Way Overcrossing is scheduled to begin Monday, November 16, 2026 at 4am, or once the traffic configuration is complete, and expected to continue through Spring 2027.

During full weekend closures, travelers should plan to use alternate routes and take the next exit.

Please note that all work is subject to change due to weather or scheduling constraints.

DETOUR MAPS AND SIMULATED TRAFFIC CONTROL VIDEOS WILL BE SHARED WHEN AVAILABLE.
