Bay Area travelers planning to head to Lake Tahoe and Truckee over Easter should prepare for significant delays on Interstate 80 due to ongoing construction. Reduced from two lanes to one near Highway 20 will slow traffic with a speed limit drop to 55 mph. Caltrans has stated that delays could exceed an hour and advise considering alternate routes, such as I-50. The construction, costing $117.5 million and set to run through April 24, aims to improve freight efficiency by enhancing the road's capacity for large trucks.
You're gonna see delays upwards of an hour, possibly even more. And unfortunately, this is 24/7 work, so there's no way around it.
The $117.5 million project is intended to improve freight efficiency along I-80 by increasing the load carrying capacity for extra-legal load trucks.
