"Caltrans has scheduled the following shutdowns: April 24-27: 70-hour closure of northbound 19th Avenue from Sloat Blvd. to Lincoln Way. May 8-11: 70-hour closure of southbound 19th Avenue from Lincoln Way to Sloat Blvd. May 22-25 (Memorial Day weekend): 75-hour closure of both directions from Sloat Blvd. to Holloway Ave."
"Residents who live and work near 19th Avenue say they're preparing for another weekend of backups, especially after last weekend's 55-hour closure on eastbound I80."
"Christian Rietta, who lives in SoMa but was running errands near 19th Avenue, said last weekend's I80 closure pushed traffic deep into neighborhood streets. 'All the traffic filtered into side streets. We literally couldn't get out,' he said."
"His advice to residents was to stay local, stay at home, go places walking distance, do your grocery shopping now, because driving is going to suck."
Caltrans will close the northbound lanes of 19th Avenue from Sloat Boulevard to Lincoln Way for 70 hours starting April 24. One lane will remain open for public transit, emergency responders, and local access. This closure is part of the 19th Avenue Rehabilitation Project, which aims to repave 18.8 lane miles. The project will be completed over three weekends, reducing the total impact from 40 days to 10 days. Residents are advised to prepare for traffic disruptions during this period.
