UPDATE: I-80 Median Work Requires Closures
 in Each Direction on Gilman Street in Berkeley
Through Late May, 2021

BERKELEY—Caltrans has scheduled nighttime median work on Interstate 80 (I-80) in Berkeley, Alameda County.  The construction work will require lane closures of Gilman Street in Berkeley from Frontage Road to Second Street to accommodate the I-80 work; the work will extend into late May. 
One lane on Gilman Street, each direction between Frontage Road and Second Street, will be closed each week, Monday through Saturday, from 10 PM to 7 AM. Traffic will be diverted to the remaining two lanes; flaggers will assist motorists with the lane changes.

Work is weather permitting. The lane closures will accommodate the median lighting and barrier replacement to make I-80 safer and smoother for motorists.
Caltrans thanks motorists for their patience as we work to improve the Bay Area’s highways, bridges, and tunnels.
