Highway 87 in San Jose reopens after weekend closure

NBC Universal, Inc.

Northbound Highway 87 in San Jose reopened early Monday morning after a weekend closure for repaving work, Caltrans said.

The freeway lanes reopened at 4 a.m. Monday, about an hour earlier than scheduled, the agency said.

Though work on the freeway lanes was completed, Caltrans told NBC Bay Area motorists should be on the lookout for overnight ramp closures on northbound Highway 87 throughout the week as crews finish repaving those areas.

The northbound closure started Friday and was the first of two weekend closures to improve the roadway's quality and safety along Highway 87 between Highway 85 and Interstate 280.

The second closure, scheduled for the weekend of Oct. 20, will shut down the southbound lanes along the same section for repaving work.

That closure will start Friday, Oct. 20 after 9 p.m. and conclude no later than 5 a.m. Monday, Oct. 23, Caltrans said.
