Interstate 580 heads northwest towards the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge and eventually to Marin County, where it joins U.S. Interstate 80 heads northeast towards Sacramento. Just north of the Berkeley-Albany border, approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) north of the Maze, the concurrency splits. I-80 east / I-580 west (Eastshore Freeway) – Berkeley, Sacramento, San Rafael The Interstate 80/Interstate 580 wrong-way concurrency from the Maze heads north through Berkeley and western Contra Costa County. Interstate 80 from the Maze heads west across the Bay Bridge into San Francisco, where it joins US 101.
The four freeways intersecting at this interchange are: It is also next to the Port of Oakland, the fourth busiest container port in the United States. San Francisco Bay Area traffic funnels across the few bridges spanning the bay, so the Maze's central location near the east end of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge makes it a hub for east–west and north–south traffic accessing San Francisco and Oakland. It splits Bay Bridge traffic into three freeways-the Eastshore (I-80/I-580), MacArthur (I-580) and Nimitz (I-880). The MacArthur Maze (or simply the Maze, also called the Distribution Structure ) is a large freeway interchange near the east end of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge in Oakland, California.
