Caltrans completes major maintenance on Hwy 37

Caltrans has canceled the overnight closure of state Highway 37 that was scheduled for Monday night and later this week.

Caltrans crews over the weekend completed major maintenance and paving on Highway 37 between state Highway 29 in Solano County and state Highway 121 in Sonoma County.

Crews were scheduled to finish the work by 5 a.m. today but completed it early at 1:30 a.m., Caltrans spokesman Vince Jacala said.

Crews were initially planning to close Highway 37 again between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. Monday through Friday this week, but instead will finish the work without full highway closures, Jacala said.

Crews repaved approximately seven miles of eastbound and westbound Highway 37 between Highways 29 and 121 over the past two weekends, Jacala said.

He said about 40,000 motorists use that stretch of Highway 37 daily.
