AND THIS IS ONE OF THE SPOTS THAT WILL BE CLOSED THIS WEEKEND AS CALTRANS PREPARES FOR 56 HOURS OF ROADWORK AND CLOSURES THIS WEEKEND. SO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. THIS IS A MAP OF WHERE ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING. AND THE CONNECTOR CLOSURES THAT WILL BE IN PLACE IF YOU’RE ON HIGHWAY 50 ITSELF. THE EASTBOUND HIGHWAY 50 CONNECTOR RAMP TO EASTBOUND BIZ 80, AKA THE CAP CITY FREEWAY AND EASTBOUND HIGHWAY 50 CONNECTOR RAMP TO SOUTHBOUND HIGHWAY 99. BASICALLY, WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEEKEND IS THEY’RE GOING TO DO SOME PAVEMENT REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT WITH NEW CONCRETE THAT’S HAPPENING IN THE AREA, AND CALTRANS TELLS KCRA 3. AND IT HAS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THAT IT DOES. THESE EXTENDED CLOSURES LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT ENDS UP BEING FASTER AND SAFER IN THE LONG RUN. WORKERS CAN GET ALL THEIR EQUIPMENT IN, DO THE JOB, PROTECT THE CREWS FROM THE RISK OF CARS ENDING UP IN THE WORK ZONE, AND THEN THEY OPEN THINGS BACK UP ONCE AGAIN AND BACK OUT HERE LIVE. YEAH, THIS IS ALL GOING TO BE CONED OFF. NO DRIVERS WILL BE ABLE TO GET UP THAT ON RAMP ONTO HIGHWAY 50 FROM 16TH STREET, BUT WE SHOULD ALSO MENTION YOU HAVE TO HEED THOSE WORK ZONE SPEED LIMITS. THEY’RE AT 55MPH THROUGH THE WORK ZONE THIS WEEKEND. SO CALTRANS IS ASKING FOLKS TO JUST HEED THAT FOR THE SAFETY OF NOT JUST THE WORKERS ON THE ROADWAY, BUT ALSO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD. REPORTING LIVE IN SACRAMENTO, MELANIE WINGO KCRA THREE NEWS. ALL RIGHT, MELANIE WINGO, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT LIVE REPORT. MEANWHILE, AN EMOTIONAL NIGHT IN SHASTA COUNTY. MORE THAN 100 PEOPLE CAME TOGETHER TO SHOW SUPPORT FOR THREE CREW MEMBERS CRITICALLY INJURED IN A HELICOPTER CRASH IN SACRAMENTO.
