Interstate 580 terminated at an at-grade three-way junction with SR 4 just southeast of Richmond.
- In update 1.5, as part of the 1:35 to 1:20 map rescale, Interstate 80 through Richmond and its half-trumpet interchange with Interstate 580 were added. SR 4 was rebuilt and its diamond interchanges with Interstate 80 and Interstate 580 were added.
- In update 1.44, as part of the second phase of the California rework, Richmond was completely reworked. Richmond Parkway was added, and SR 4 through Richmond and its diamond interchanges with Interstate 80 and Interstate 580 were removed. The Gallon Oil refinery was replaced by a Chemso oil depot, and the rest area by the toll gate was removed.
- In update 1.46, a viewpoint was added near the HMS Machinery depot.
