Safe Navigation Passage Restored on Butte City Bridge
Contractors Clear Passage Along the Sacramento River
BUTTE & GLENN COUNTIES — Caltrans is alerting boaters that the Butte City Bridge now has
a clear navigation channel beneath Segment #3 of the new bridge, restoring safe passage for
recreational users along the Sacramento River.
Debris removal operations began Wednesday and will continue over the coming days. The
public can now safely pass under the bridge through the cleared navigation opening. A barge
with a crane remains in place on the river as crews continue removing debris. Please use
caution when traveling through or near the work zone.
This $114 million bridge replacement project began in 2022. Full construction of the new bridge
is expected to be completed by early June, with full project completion, including demolition of
the old bridge, anticipated in 2026. The project will improve safety and extend the lifespan of the
bridge while enhancing roadway conditions along the corridor. In addition to replacing the aging
structure, the project includes upgrades to drainage systems, improved signage and striping,
and accessibility enhancements to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards.
Caltrans District 3 is responsible for maintaining and operating 4,385 lane miles in 11
Sacramento Valley and Northern Sierra counties. Caltrans reminds motorists to “Be Work Zone
Alert” and slow in construction zones for the safety of travelers and crews performing these
improvements.
