The contractor, Gerber Construction Inc., is currently working on several bridges within the project. Eastbound and westbound I-80 over both structures is restricted to two lanes at all times . Traffic is also restricted to one lane periodically during overnight hours, between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., for specific operations . Eastbound and westbound I-80 is currently shifted to one side of the interstate, with the other side closed for deck work. The two lanes are narrow, and the speed limit is reduced to 55 m.p.h.
Concrete barrier is in place, protecting vehicles from the work sites.
The lane restrictions are causing minimal delays, except during peak hours. During peak hours, drivers should expect moderate delays where traffic merges into two lanes. Crews are working Monday through Friday during daylight hours. Operations are taking place behind the concrete barrier, with no lane closures on eastbound I-80. Minor work continues below the structure on State Street.
