DUBLIN ? Caltrans plans to close all southbound I-680 lanes in Pleasanton between the I-580/I-680 connector and SR-84, a move that will dramatically impact traffic in Dublin.

The closures will be in place from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. on Tuesday to repair deteriorated pavement. This is a holiday weekend, for Martin Luther King Day on Monday.

Expect increased traffic on Highway 84, and Interstates 580 and 880 as traffic will be detoured to those roads. Traffic will also be impacted elsewhere in the East Bay as Caltrans attempts to shift traffic long before drivers come upon the detour.
