Carquinez Bridge Replacement

Carquinez Bridge rplacementProject Sponsor:
Caltrans

Project Description:
The existing Carquinez Bridge carries Interstate 80 traffic between the cities of Vallejo and Crockett on two separate structures: the 1927 span for westbound traffic and the 1958 span for eastbound traffic. While the 1958 span is being strengthened under Caltrans' seismic retrofit program, the 1927 span is being replaced. The new four-lane replacement suspension bridge was built just west of the existing spans. Next, the 1927 bridge will be demolished and removed. Along with full standard shoulders, the new bridge also carries a new bicycle and pedestrian pathway.
