Last weekend was the fifth of six consecutive 58-hour weekend partial lane closures on the Pioneer Bridge on U.S. Highway 50 near downtown Sacramento. Approximately 70 percent of the paving has been completed. Motorists are advised to avoid this area if possible and to plan ahead before travelling.

The Pioneer Bridge is the main connector for Sacramento and Yolo counties on U.S. Highway 50 over the Sacramento River. Additional information including recommended detours can be found at The Pioneer Bridge website

 The daily lane closure schedule during the week will continue to be Monday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Construction is expected to last through this month with an effort to complete the work by Labor Day.

The paving work is weather dependent and subject to delays. The bridge deck’s concrete surface must not exceed 100 degrees for crews to place the overlay material on the roadway.
