NASCAR San Diego Weekend Races at Naval Base Coronado June 19 – 21

SAN DIEGO - Naval Base Coronado will be hosting the NASCAR San Diego Weekend Races on Friday, June 19 to Sunday, June 21. As a result, large impacts to traffic along State Route 75 (SR-75) are expected throughout the weekend.

Caltrans will configure the movable barrier on the managed lanes of the San Diego-Coronado Bay Bridge to accommodate event traffic throughout the weekend. To give people early notice of this weekend's events, Caltrans issued an Encroachment Permit to NASCAR to place Portable Changeable Message Signs around the Interstate 5 area, specifically between Interstate 8 and State Route 905. Caltrans will be supplementing with Fixed Changeable Message Signs during the three days of the event.

Attendees are encouraged to arrive early for the event (the base will be accessible as early as 7 a.m.) and be patient as the base works to get everyone in. All other motorists are encouraged to avoid Coronado and its SR-75 entry points to avoid getting caught in traffic.
