“I’ve been driving for 55 years and this is the best (road) work ever.”

Q: My wife and I visited family in Brentwood recently and traveled via Interstate 5 and I-580. The stretch of 580 west between I-5 and I-205 is the best repair work I have ever seen at the interfaces of asphalt and cement overpasses! Caltrans should hire this contractor to do all of their repair work or have them hold classes for other contractors on how this repair should be done.

Q: In December, you printed my concerns about why Caltrans needed over six months to reconstruct the overpass on Interstate 880 in Union City north of Decoto Road. I compared that project with the reconstruction of the Highway 101 overpass in San Francisco’s Alemany Circle over two weeks during COVID. I noted that the project had already taken over six months, wondered when it would end, and suggested that Caltrans just shut down the overpass over two weekends to complete the project.

Fast forward another six months, it is now late July, and it appears that Caltrans is finally laying down a top layer of asphalt and should be re-striping lanes thereafter. Citizens appreciate transparency and good work, and reward the government with additional tax dollars when they see results.
