Construction Closures Planned for US 101

A portion of U.S. Highway 101 in Menlo Park - on the Menlo/Redwood City border - will have numerous early morning closures Wednesday through Friday this week, Caltrans officials said.

The scheduled closures are part of the highway's Marsh to University Auxiliary Lane Widening Project and will allow work crews to remove temporary construction on the Ringwood Pedestrian Overcrossing.

Northbound lanes on Highway 101 between Marsh Road and Willow Avenue will be closed Wednesday and Friday morning from 12 a.m. to 4 a.m., while southbound lanes on Highway 101 between Willow Avenue and Marsh Road will be closed Thursday from 12 a.m. to 4 a.m.

Clearly marked detours will reroute drivers during those early morning hours, Caltrans officials said.

Northbound traffic will exit eastbound Willow Avenue, northbound to state Highway 84, onto westbound Marsh Road, and back onto northbound Highway 101.

Southbound traffic will exit westbound on Marsh Road, south to Middlefield Road, eastbound on Willow Avenue and back onto southbound Highway 101.
