SOLANO COUNTY, Calif. — The historic Stevenson Bridge, a crossing between Solano and Yolo counties, reopened to public traffic on October 10, 2026 following rehabilitation, according to an announcement from the two counties.

What officials announced

A Solano County news release dated October 9 said the bridge would reopen the following Saturday after completion of a major rehabilitation project. The reopening was announced jointly by Solano and Yolo counties, reflecting the bridge’s role in connecting communities on both sides of the county line.

Historic bridges can require specialized maintenance to extend their useful life while preserving structures that are important to local transportation and heritage. The county’s announcement addresses restoration of the crossing; it should not be interpreted as a blanket statement that every nearby road is free of construction or traffic controls.

What drivers should check

Before making an unfamiliar trip, motorists should confirm the approach roads and any posted vehicle restrictions. Conditions can change after the date of a reopening notice. Local road authorities and Caltrans QuickMap are useful sources for current state-road conditions.

The county’s News & Events page provides a public record of the October 9 announcement and additional county updates. Local residents who encounter new temporary closure signs should follow on-site instructions, not an older report.
