Caltrans adds that the work will begin Sunday at 9 p.m. and should be finished next Sunday around 9 p.m.

The location for the closure is the eastbound Del Paso Road loop on-ramp to Interstate 5 northbound in North Natomas.

Caltrans said the following routes can serve as detours for drivers:

  • Continue eastbound to East Commerce Way and make a U-turn to use the westbound Del Paso Road slip on-ramp to northbound I-5 (Redding).

  • Use the Arena Boulevard on-ramp as an alternate route for northbound I-5.
