The closures, which will take place over several weeks, will involve a stretch of the highway between Sears Point in Sonoma County and Mare Island in Vallejo. Crews are expediting work, which will require full shutdowns of the route, officials said.
Shutdowns will begin on Wednesday, Oct. 21 and Thursday, Oct. 22, as Caltrans closes the westbound direction of the highway from 7 p.m. to 4 a.m. the following day.
During the closures, crews will demolish the median and install K-rail to shift both eastbound and westbound traffic to what are currently the westbound lanes. Once the shift is complete, crews will focus on the eastbound lanes to raise portions of the roadway by 3 feet to address flooding concerns.
Caltrans said motorists should expect delays and increased travel times.
The agency is recommending multiple detours around the closure.
Meanwhile, drivers using eastbound 37 will need to detour by taking northbound Highway 121, making a right on the Carneros Highway (Highways 12 and 121), followed by a right on Highway 12 and 29, rejoining Highway 37 in Vallejo.
Officials said the roadwork is dependent on weather conditions.
