State Route 84 Closed This Weekend

FREMONT, CA — State Route 84, also known as Niles Canyon Road, will be closed Friday to Monday, April 22-25, from Fremont to Sunol for Caltrans work on the Alameda Creek Bridge.

The roadway will close at 8 p.m. Friday from Palomares Road in Fremont to Main Street in Sunol, and reopen 5 a.m. Monday, the Fremont Police Department said.
