Work on I-80 to cause delays

Expect delays on Interstate 80 east of Colfax as work on the Truck Climbing Lane project resumes.

Lane closures will be required to construct a freeway lane cross-over in order to complete the replacement of the Cape Horn Bridge.

Caltrans will utilize both lane closures and “rolling block” escorts of traffic by the California Highway Patrol through closure zones to construct a “cross-over” that will shift westbound freeway lanes to the east in order to allow the structure replacement work to continue on the west side of the Cape Horn Bridge. The cross-over work is anticipated to take place in the project’s construction zone, weather permitting, from 6pm April 30 to 6pm May 2.

Motorists are encouraged to plan for delays and adjust their travel time accordingly.
