55 hr. Highway Closures On I-680 at the Mission San Jose (SR-238) Overpass in Fremont Weekends of July 11 & July 18, 2025
Alameda County – Caltrans is scheduled to close one direction of Interstate 680 at the I-680 and Mission San Jose (SR-238) Separation/Overpass in Fremont for two consecutive weekends to perform critical bridge and pavement work. Southbound I-680 will close the weekend of July 11, 2025, followed by Northbound I-680 the weekend of July 18, 2025.
These 55-hour closures are necessary to safely and efficiently complete key construction activities, including full bridge deck resurfacing and approach slab repairs. This phase of work involves heavy machinery and the resurfacing of the entire bridge deck. This work must be performed without live traffic to ensure worker and motorists safety. Concentrating these operations during weekend closures helps reduce the overall duration and impact of the project.
During these weekend closures, only one direction of travel on I-680 will be closed at a time with detours set in place. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and use alternative routes.
Please see here for more details.
