BAY BRIDGE — Lane closures and traffic patterns are scheduled for the week of October 20th – 26th.

The westbound span of the Bay Bridge may be closed Sunday from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., Monday through Wednesday from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m., Thursday from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., Friday from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. and Saturday from 9 p.m. to 8 a.m. for preservation/maintenance work or routine annual inspections.

The right lane on the westbound span is closed 24/7 for roadwork. Expect major delays in both directions.
