Signed Detours in Place for Motorists to Eastbound U.S. Highway 50
YOLO COUNTY – Caltrans is alerting motorists of upcoming extended weekend ramp closures for the ongoing Yolo Interstate 80 (I-80) and U.S. Highway 50 (US-50) Pavement Rehabilitation Project.
Construction work will include a closure of the Enterprise Boulevard on- and off-ramps to eastbound US-50. Caltrans urges motorists to plan for additional travel time and to expect delays.
- 9 p.m. Friday, January 10 to 5 a.m. Monday, January 13
DETOUR:
- Eastbound US-50 motorists can exit at Harbor Boulevard (EXIT 1) east of Enterprise Boulevard.
- Motorists on West Capitol Avenue can continue to Industrial Boulevard, then Harbor Boulevard to US-50 (see detour map).
The work zone is from the just west of the Yolo Causeway through I-80 and US 50 in West Sacramento. The speed limit has been reduced to 55 miles per hour 24/7 for the safety of workers and motorists.
Work is scheduled to begin as listed but subject to change due to traffic incidents, weather conditions, availability of equipment and/or materials, and construction-related issues.
The extended lane closures will help to minimize the duration of the work and improve workers’ safety.
This $280 million project includes $47 million from Senate Bill (SB 1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. SB 1 provides $5 billion in transportation funding annually, shared equally between state and local agencies. Road projects progress through construction phases more quickly based on the availability of SB 1 funds, including projects partially funded by SB 1.

Caltrans District 3 is responsible for maintaining and operating 4,385 lane miles in 11 Sacramento Valley and Northern Sierra counties. Caltrans reminds motorists to “Be Work Zone Alert” and slow in construction zones for the safety of travelers and crews performing these improvements.
