BENICIA, CA — Caltrans Bay Area will start working on the Benicia Road Overcrossing at Interstate 80 and will close off the freeway bridge to the public starting Tuesday, Sept. 7. The closure is part of the Interstate 80 Six Bridges Project to increase the vertical clearance of six overcrossings along the freeway just north of the Carquinez Bridge in the City of Valljeo. Northbound and southbound Benicia Road at I-80 will remain closed for 4 months until construction is completed in January. Benicia Road Bridge Detour Routes Westbound Detour: Motorists traveling westbound on Benicia Road will need to head southbound on Laurel Street and take a slight left turn onto Reis Avenue to enter westbound Curtola Parkway, then take a left onto Lemon Street to Benicia Road.
