The closure between the Interstate Highway 580 interchange and Koopman Road was set to start Friday night and last through the President's Day holiday Monday, and was already rescheduled from last month when stormy weather caused it to be postponed.

New dates for the highway closure will be released at a later time. The closure is meant to allow crews to repair deteriorating pavement on the highway and is not planned to affect northbound traffic on Highway 680.
