FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Placer County – Caltrans is alerting motorists of overnight lane closures on a five-mile section of Interstate 80 (I-80) in western Placer County for roadwork.
Crews are installing the remaining traffic loops on I-80 between Douglas Boulevard in Roseville and Sierra College Boulevard in Rocklin. Motorists can expect alternating lane and ramp closures from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Sunday through Thursday.
The westbound on-ramp at Taylor Road will close tonight. Crews will take a break for the Fourth of July holiday, resuming work Sunday, July 9 to install permanent striping and rumble strips at various locations.
Lamon Construction Co. of Yuba City is the contractor for the project, which is scheduled to be completed by the end of July. Heavy rains over the winter deteriorated the pavement in this area, and a $5.1 million emergency contract was executed for repair work.
Caltrans reminds motorists to “Be Work Zone Alert” and slow in construction zones for the safety of travelers and crews performing these improvements. The department will issue construction updates on Twitter @CaltransDist3 and on Facebook at CaltransDistrict3.
