I Street Bridge Replacement Project

The I Street Bridge Replacement Project, managed by the City of Sacramento and the California Transportation Commission, involves replacing the existing two-lane vehicle crossing over the Sacramento River with a new two-lane bridge on a new alignment approximately 1,000 feet north of the current structure. The new bridge will be 860 feet long and feature a 330-foot-long vertical lift movable center span. To enhance multi-modal transportation, the design includes sidewalks on both sides and Class II buffered bicycle lanes. The scope of work also requires the partial or full removal of five bridge approaches. The project is located between the City of Sacramento in Sacramento County and the City of West Sacramento in Yolo County, specifically spanning from 3rd Street in Sacramento to 5th Street in West Sacramento. Environmental compliance has been addressed through a Final Environmental Impact Report and an Addendum prepared under CEQA, with the project receiving approval on October 16-17, 2025. Administrative oversight is led by Supervising Engineer Jesse Gothan, and the project is classified under NAICS code 237310.
