Traffic Shift on Interstate 5 in Stockton

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will shift traffic from northbound Interstate 5 to the median from south of Country Club Boulevard to Hammer Lane.  This work is necessary to begin the reconstruction of the pavement in the northbound lanes.

Crews will begin work the week of Monday, July 29, 2013.

Motorists should expect 15 minute delays during the traffic shift.  Alternate routes should be taken whenever possible.

This work is scheduled to begin as listed, but is subject to change due to traffic incidents, weather, availability of equipment and/ or materials and construction related issues.

This work is part of the $122.1 million I-5 North Stockton Improvements Project will add High Occupancy Vehicle lanes, auxiliary lanes and soundwalls, from Hammer Lane to south of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.  The project also reconstructs the existing six-lane freeway with continuously reinforced concrete pavement between Hammer Lane and Country Club Boulevard.  The contractor for the project is R & L Brossmer Inc. of Walnut Creek, CA.
