Interstate 880

From Free net encyclopedia

For the former Interstate 880 around Sacramento, California, now part of Interstate 80, see Interstate 880 (Sacramento, California).

Template:Infobox CA Route Interstate 880 (abbreviated I-880) is an interstate highway in the San Francisco Bay Area. For most of that distance, it runs parallel to the southeastern shore of San Francisco Bay, where it is called the Nimitz Freeway, after World War II admiral Chester Nimitz, who retired to the Bay Area.

The northern terminus is in Oakland at the junction with Interstate 80 and Interstate 580 (known as the MacArthur Maze), near the eastern approach of the Bay Bridge. The southern terminus is at Interstate 280 in San Jose.

Notes

Cypress Viaduct Loma Prieta earthquake 1989

Image:Cypress structure.jpeg A large double-decker section in Oakland, known as the Cypress Street Viaduct, collapsed during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, causing 42 deaths, the greatest loss of life of that earthquake. Rebuilding that section of the freeway took nearly a decade, due to environmental impact concerns, the feeling that the freeway divided the neighborhood, and design considerations. The highway was expensively rebuilt on a new route parallel to rail lines around the outskirts of West Oakland. The former path of the structure, Cypress Street, was renamed Mandela Parkway, and the median where the freeway stood became a landscaped linear park. [1]

California State Route 17

South of Interstate 280 in San Jose, Interstate 880 loses its interstate designation and becomes Highway 17, which passes through the Santa Cruz Mountains and terminates in Santa Cruz. Until it was given interstate status in January 1986, however, the present-day Interstate 880 was designated as California Highway 17 along its entire route from San Jose to Oakland, and Highway 17 continued northward beyond Oakland to US 101 in San Rafael via the Eastshore Freeway, Richmond city streets, and the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge (now included in I-580's routing).

Sacramento bypass

Interstate 880 was at one time designated as a bypass of Sacramento. Its route is now used by Interstate 80. The old path of I-80 through downtown Sacramento is now designated Business Loop Interstate 80.

Historic Business U.S. Route 50

The northern portion of I-880 was designated Business U.S. Route 50 for a time.
