Full Closure of State Route 84 in Niles Canyon between Palomares Road in Fremont to Main Street in Sunol Over One Weekend in Late July 2021
ALAMEDA COUNTY—Caltrans has scheduled to close State Route 84 in both directions from Palomares Road in Fremont to Main Street in Sunol for an entire weekend for work on the Alameda Creek Bridge, tentatively in late July.
The closure will last 57 hours, starting at 8 p.m. on a Friday night and ending at 5 a.m. on the following Monday morning. The public will be notified well in advance when the exact dates of the closure are determined.
During this closure, contractor will work around the clock to replace the existing bridge railings on Alameda Creek bridge. The work includes removal of existing barrier rail and concrete, removal of existing overhang, installation of new reinforcement bars followed by concrete pour for the new overhang.
Once concrete is cured, k-rail will be placed, and the road will be opened to traffic. Portable changeable message signs (PCMSs) will be placed prior to closure advising motorists of this closure and will stay in effect during full closure.
Caltrans thanks motorists and residents for their patience as we work to maintain and improve the Bay Area’s highways, bridges and tunnels.
