ALAMEDA COUNTY ― Caltrans has scheduled a full three-day closure at Gilman Street between Second and Fourth Streets in Berkeley starting at 12:01 A.M. April 18 until 11:59 P.M. Thursday, April 20. Access to business will be maintained and detours will be provided (see below).

The closure will accommodate work on a roundabout Caltrans is building that will enhance safety and ease congestion at the Interstate 80 Gilman Interchange.

The closure will be from the west side of the intersection of Fourth Street and Gilman. Traffic will be allowed in both directions on Fourth Street. The east side of the Second Street intersection with Gilman will be closed, but traffic will be allowed in both directions on Second Street.

Fifth Street from Camelia to Gilman and Camelia to Fourth through Sixth Streets will not be impacted besides possibly increased traffic from detours.

Sidewalks and street parking in the two-block area will also be closed for the approximately two-month period.

In the case of rain or unanticipated developments, the closure dates will be adjusted, and the public will be notified.

Caltrans has also scheduled to close Gilman Street for 50 days between Fourth Street and Second Street in Berkeley on May 2 to June 21, 2023. Traffic advisory will be provided prior to the scheduled 50-day closure.
