U.S. 101 Closure for Cordilleras Creek Bridge Replacement Project

Published on September 25, 2023

Along U.S. 101 in Redwood City, between the Whipple Avenue and Brittan Avenue exits (postmile 6.7 - 7.6), spans the Cordilleras Creek Bridge. This bridge is at the end of its service life and needs to be replaced. To accomplish this work, Caltrans plans to close each side of U.S. 101 (northbound and southbound) for two weekend closures. Traffic management strategies will be implemented to keep traffic away from the area and to reroute travelers between the Holly Street and Whipple Avenue exits onto Industrial Way in Redwood City. 

Residents are advised to avoid the project area and utilize alternate routes during the closures when possible. Roadway message signs will be set up throughout the Bay Area to direct both local and regional travelers away from the closure.

Weekend full freeway closures will last from 10 p.m. Friday night (Sept. 29) to 5 a.m. Monday morning (Oct. 2).

Northbound Closure Dates and Detour

Weekend full freeway closures will last from 10 p.m. Friday night (Oct. 13) to 5 a.m. Monday morning (Oct. 16).
