Antlers Bridge Repairs Complete on Interstate 5 Near Lakehead
Caltrans says crews have completed joint replacements at two locations on Antlers Bridge near Lakehead. Similar work was also recently completed on the Cottonwood Creek Bridge near the Shasta and Tehama County line.
Drivers traveling through northern Shasta County have a completed bridge repair project to mark off the list.
Caltrans District 2 announced Friday, October 30th, 2026, that work on Antlers Bridge along Interstate 5 near Lakehead is complete.
The project removed and replaced bridge joints at two locations on the structure, according to the agency.
The announcement also highlighted similar work recently completed on the Cottonwood Creek Bridge along Interstate 5 near the Shasta and Tehama County line. Together, the projects address bridge components along two stretches of the North State’s interstate corridor.
Caltrans said the work will help keep traffic and commerce moving on Interstate 5 for years to come. For residents, travelers and businesses that depend on the route, the completed repairs are a welcome update on a highway that connects communities across Northern California.
