Mare Island Causeway project: two‑day closure set for November; completion expected Jan. 5, 2027
Summary
City capital planning staff said traffic flow on Mare Island has been shifted to one-way, a two‑day full bridge closure is scheduled in November, and the project is slated for completion on January 5, 2027; officials and residents discussed shuttle and attendance impacts for nearby schools.
Capital planning staff updated the 2x2 on the Mare Island Causeway Bridge rehabilitation. Staff said traffic on Mare Island has been converted to one-way while work proceeds, and a two‑day complete bridge closure is planned in November.
Sam Kumar, a capital planning engineer, said the project is currently slated for completion on January 5, 2027. Residents and school officials said the one‑way flow has improved daily traffic for students and workers but expressed concern about how a two‑day closure will affect school attendance and commuting; one speaker suggested shuttling students for those two days and said attendance impacts could be used to request funding recapture from the state if attendance suffers.
No formal motion was made; staff said they will provide timing details and coordinate with schools to mitigate impacts.
