Drivers in Sacramento should expect delays this weekend as a series of ramp and lane closures on eastbound Highway 50 are scheduled to begin Friday night.

The weekend closure is part of Caltans' $511 million Fix50 Multimodal Corridor Enhancement Project, which aims to rehabilitate pavement and add 14 lane miles of new high-occupancy vehicle lanes between the Highway 50-Interstate 5 interchange and Watt Avenue.

Here is what drivers should know.

Ramp and lane closures

The 34th Street off-ramp from eastbound Highway 50 will be fully closed starting at 9 p.m. Friday through 5 a.m. Monday, Caltrans said. Crews will perform concrete removal and replacement on travel lanes, along with asphalt work on shoulders near the eastbound 34th Street off-ramp and the southbound Business 80 connector.
