About the Mare Island Bridge If you work or live nearby Mare Island, then you’ve probably crossed this bridge. The Mare Island Causeway Bridge is located at the north end of the Vallejo Waterfront. This bridge connects Mare Island to the Greater Vallejo area and is accessible to vehicles, pedestrian, and rail traffic.
THE BRIDGE AT A GLANCE: 165 feet long and 48.5 feet wide
Minimum Clearance (span down) 12.4 feet
Maximum Clearance (span fully raised) 99.7 feet
WHAT’S HAPPENING ON THE BRIDGE?
THESE REPAIRS ARE EXPECTED TO INCLUDE:
In 2016, the City of Vallejo completed an upgrade project on the bridge, replacing a 50-foot span of bridge timber with steel. However, the iconic bridge now requires additional maintenance repairs to extend the Bridge’s serviceable life and improve pedestrian and driver safety.
Bridge deck and pile repairs
Repairing damaged concrete surfaces
Sidewalk replacement and ADA improvements
Repairing the fender system that directs ships through the correct opening under the bridge
Lighting and handrail repairs
Replacement of underwater anodes which protect the bridge’s steel against saltwater corrosion
Repainting the Bridge’s steel lift span, towers, and historic logo
HOW WILL THIS PROJECT IMPACT ME? The City anticipates that when construction begins, the bridge may experience partial lane closures.
