Starting Friday night and every other weekend thereafter, Caltrans will be closing either the eastbound or westbound lanes of Interstate 80 in Contra Costa County near the Carquinez Bridge.
Some folks will be seriously disrupted. "It's news to me. You told me. I had no idea. So yeah, I find it quite absurd for sure," said Juan Carlos Cazarez whose family own Mazatlan Taqueria & Grill. Numerous businesses there will be cut off. "It will definitely affect us for a few days, especially knowing that our weekends are our busiest days." said Cazarez.
The closures will result in a very smooth ride and last far, far longer. "There won't be joints. You won't be feeling that as you drive. Also, because they're not joints, the pavement will last a lot longer. So instead of coming back in 10 years we've got about 40 out of this job," said the Caltrans spokesman.
Then, come Labor Day weekend, westbound I-80 will be closed from Thursday at 9 p.m. until Tuesday, September 5 at I-780, the Curtola Parkway, at 5 a.m."Labor Day weekend is, historically one of the lowest for our region," said Ney. Caltrans says future projects will concentrate on making the rest of I-80 much more passable and much more comfortable. But, that will take some time. Five of 15 Antioch police officers won't be showing up at a court hearing Friday to discuss racism and alleged crimes within the department because the city said they are out on medical leave and can't attend, according to the Bay Area News Group.
