🛣️ Expect delays along State Route 75 (SR-75) 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.
NASCAR San Diego Weekend at Naval Base Coronado begins tomorrow, June 19. A quick update for residents and visitors: please expect increased traffic, congestion, and delays throughout the island.
City Hall and Public Services facilities will be closed to the public on Friday, June 19, 2026.
For more information and a helpful overview of what to expect, visit the Project Coronado page and review the Community Preparedness Presentation.
