The Bay Bridge, seen here in January, has a new eastbound off-ramp to Yerba Buena Island, as the old exit to Treasure Island closes.
Yalonda M. James/The ChronicleThe old eastbound off-ramp to Treasure Island from the left lane of the Bay Bridge will close at 7 a.m. Thursday, Caltrans announced, as drivers move fully to a newly constructed off-ramp that opened last month.
To use the new off-ramp to Yerba Buena Island, with access to Treasure Island, drivers must exit from the right lane, just past the tunnel on the bridge’s lower level.
Caltrans provided an animation on Twitter illustrating how it works.
Caltrans has said the left-lane exit will reopen in several years, after seismic reinforcements for the western span of the bridge are completed — allowing drivers to take either exit.
The turn off the new off-ramp is still tight, so drivers should take it at 15 miles per hour, Caltrans has said.
Chronicle staff writer Ricardo Cano contributed to this report.
