24 as of 5pm Friday
Here's an update from my drive home tonight. I'm sure there will be more work done tonight. As of now, this is where we stand.
Lanes will be #1 for the slow to #4 for fast left lane.
Everything is fine from the Caldecott through Orinda until you get just past St Stephens. Lanes 1 and 2 are paved and smooth for the longest amount. After the St S. overpass the #3 lane has not been completely paved. It literally becomes a pit with the lanes on either side being higher with rocks bordering it. Lanes 1,2 and 4 are ok. Just at the right-hand sign for Lafayette, the #4 lane becomes unpaved.
At the Acalanes exit all h@ll breaks loose. This is probably the worst part of 24 right now. Lane 3 seems to (again) be the bad one with less smooth transitions from paved to unpaved. The slow lanes are still better, but not by much. Watch for over passes where the freeway goes over the local roads. If anything will be unfinished, that's the place.
Everything smoothes out at Pleasant Hill road.
Blue tape anyone?

I was going to try to drop by before work on Sunday but since so many people are showing up I've decided not to go in fear of not finding a parking spot (). I just ask for one favor: Take lots of pics so I can see how much fun everyone had. So, ya, have fun!
