Also, up to three lanes on US-101 southbound near Richardson Bridge will be closed on Saturday, April 22 between 9 p.m. until 8 a.m. on Sunday, April 23. At least one lane will be open to traffic.

All work is dependent on weather.

The bicycle lane on the US-101 southbound shoulder will be shut down during construction hours. Cyclists can take a detour onto US-101 northbound to Frontage Road, turn on Hamilton Drive and then onto the Mill Valley Sausalito bike path. Detour signs will be posted.

Residents in the area may experience noise and dust due to the work. The need for the project is to preserve the existing bridge and to decrease the probability of costly repairs in the future.
