Paving Is Expected To Continue On Tank Farm Road.

Check out what we have going on in the upcoming weeks as we continue to make progress on our ongoing neighborhood enhancement projects aimed at making our city safer, more accessible, and better connected.

Work to upgrade and add more safety improvements to key streets and intersections is still underway. We expect to continue work in the areas below.

Tank Farm Road: We expect to continue grinding and paving work from Wavertree Street to Poinsettia Street as we make our way towards Broad Street. as we make our way towards Broad Street. We’ll be working on one side of the road at a time and will maintain traffic flowing in two directions. Commuters can expect traffic delays due to flagging, lane closures and shifting. Please drive carefully through the work zone, plan for extra travel time, take alternative routes, and share this information with your neighbors.
Sacramento Drive: We’re adding finishing touches like raising utilities from Industrial Way to Via Esteban. Commuters can expect minor traffic delays due to flagging in the area.

Work will be continuing on-site for the Mission Plaza Enhancement Project. Work will continue on site, as we wrap up paving around the area. We also expect to begin striping and speed hump removal as early as the beginning of next week on Monterey Street between Broad and Palm Streets from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Commuters can expect traffic delays due to a road closure with detours, flagging, and construction trucks entering and leaving the area. Pedestrians can expect sidewalk closures with detours.

We are continuing sidewalk and landscaping work as part of the Cultural Arts District Parking Garage. We’re continuing utility work on Palm, Nipomo, and Monterey Streets. During work Palm, Nipomo, and Monterey Streets are expected to be open, and commuters can still expect minor traffic delays due to intermittent flagging and lane shifting.
