WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. —
One of the bridges commuters use between Sacramento and West Sacramento will shut down over several days for maintenance.
The I Street Bridge, built in 1911, will close beginning at 6 a.m. on Oct. 6 for Union Pacific Railroad to complete repairs to the exterior siding of a building on the bridge.
All travel across the bridge will be paused during the repair period, including drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians.
The primary alternate route during the closure will be the Tower Bridge. For drivers traveling on I Street from Sacramento to West Sacramento, turn left on 3rd Street and then take a right on Capitol Mall. For drivers traveling from West Sacramento to Sacramento, take 5th or 3rd streets up to Cabaldon Parkway and turn left to get onto the Tower Bridge.
