FREMONT, CA — One phase of a safety improvement project on state Highway 84 in Alameda County is nearing completion.
The removal of trees that began in November is expected to wrap up in March to make room for road improvements, according to Caltrans.
The project runs from Mission Boulevard in Fremont to Interstate Highway 680 in Niles Canyon.
Intermittent lane closures -- when traffic flow is limited to one lane with signs and flaggers on hand -- will continue through at least the end of this phase.
