Westbound Interstate 580 on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge is scheduled to close from 11 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, to 8 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 15, for toll-equipment installation.
Eastbound lanes will remain open, according to Caltrans’ Nov. 10 advisory.
Restrictions begin earlier Saturday evening: westbound lane closures start at 7 p.m., and the pedestrian and bicycle path closes at 9 p.m. The path is scheduled to reopen at 8 a.m. Sunday.
The updated advisory identifies the westbound closure as beginning at Canal Street and/or Richmond Parkway. The Stenmark Drive westbound off-ramp will remain available only to local traffic with access stickers.
Crews will install an overhead structure supporting toll equipment as part of the bridge’s open-road tolling project. Drivers can find detour maps on the Caltrans tolling project page.
Separately, Caltrans’ October advisory lists the Stenmark Drive on-ramp to westbound I-580 as closed tentatively until February 2027.
Caltrans says work schedules are subject to weather and may change. Travelers can check QuickMap for current conditions.
Caltrans is also seeking comments on a separate Westbound Improvement Project evaluating the bridge’s future lane, shoulder and pedestrian/bicycle-path configuration.
The agency announced three public scoping meetings in a Nov. 11 post on X. Each runs from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.:
