SACRAMENTO – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) announces that State Highway 65 at Pleasant Grove Boulevard will be subject to night closures. A contractor is scheduled to place falsework for the Pleasant Grove over-crossing. The closure schedule is as follows:

q Tuesday, July 1 from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. Wednesday, all southbound lanes will be closed. Motorists will be detoured off the highway at Pleasant Grove Boulevard and right back onto the highway via the on-ramp.

q Wednesday, July 2 from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. Thursday, all northbound lanes will be closed. Motorists will be detoured off the highway to westbound Pleasant Grove Boulevard. Motorists will turn northbound on Roseville Parkway to northbound Washington Boulevard. Motorists will then turn eastbound on Blue Oakes Boulevard and will return back to northbound Highway 65.

The closures are part of a $9 million over-crossing improvement project and will provide three lanes of traffic in each direction. The project also provides an upgraded on-ramp to southbound Highway 65.

Motorists are advised to use caution when traveling through the construction area and to “Slow For the Cone Zone”.
