Weekend closure on highway to Tahoe incoming. Caltrans recommends going around.
Briefly

California's Sacramento is bracing for extensive traffic disruptions due to three concurrent highway construction projects. Caltrans is closing the eastbound side of Highway 50 over a weekend, contributing to the already congested roadways affected by ongoing repairs on Interstate 80. The work is part of the Pavement Rehabilitation Project, with lengthy closures expected to last several months. A Caltrans spokesperson recommends Bay Area drivers bound for Tahoe or Reno to take alternative routes, specifically suggesting Highway 113 as a better option to circumvent the planned roadblocks and mitigate travel delays.
Caltrans' closure of eastbound Highway 50 in Sacramento this June will create significant traffic disruptions for motorists.
The ongoing construction projects, including the Yolo 80 Corridor Improvements, are expected to exacerbate congestion for several months.
To avoid traffic, Bay Area drivers should consider using Highway 113 to circumvent the ongoing road projects in Sacramento.
Caltrans spokesperson Dennis Keaton advises using alternative routes during peak hours to avoid delays caused by construction.
