SAN FRANCISCO – Last week it was I-80 along the east side of San Francisco that was shut down. Now drivers are preparing for major roadwork on one of the busiest streets on the west side of the city.
Used daily by an estimated 66,000 vehicles, 19th Avenue, a major north/south thoroughfare, is a bumpy ride, full of potholes and cracks. Now, Caltrans is set to begin the first of three major road closures to repair, resurface, and repave.
From 7 a.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday, all but one northbound lane on 19th Ave. will be closed between Sloat Boulevard and Lincoln Way.…
