""This is an important closure to allow Caltrans to revitalize and rehabilitate a major stretch of the freeway," said Lori Shepherd from Caltrans."
""I had no idea," said one driver, reflecting the surprise of many locals about the closure."
""Going forward, it will be a smoother ride, more importantly a safer ride, safer structure for motorists who use it all the time," Shepherd said."
""It's just been a headache," said Latonya Green, describing her experience with the traffic backup."
The eastbound lanes of Interstate 80 in San Francisco are closed for 55 hours for a significant repaving project. Caltrans is revitalizing a 1.6-mile stretch of the freeway, using polyester concrete overlay to repair cracks. Traffic is being rerouted, and while some drivers were unaware of the closure, traffic jams were less severe than anticipated. The project aims to provide a smoother and safer ride for motorists in the future.
