Night Work
Night work is currently scheduled for Monday, September 9, between the hours of 10:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M., at the intersection of the Piner High School main entrance. While this work is underway the traffic signals in the intersection will be turned off and traffic control measures, including temporary STOP signs will be in place. Please use caution while traveling through the area during this time and be aware of all traffic control measures in place.
Project Update
Starting Wednesday, September 11, the contractor will begin installing the center medians throughout the project site. The work is expected to start at the north end of the project near Piner Road and move south along Fulton Road. This work is expected to last for approximately 3 weeks, with traffic control measures limited to the areas where work is being completed. As always, when traveling in or near the construction areas, be cautious and aware of work crews, flaggers, traffic control, rough roadways, special signage, and heavy equipment. Please be prepared for temporary traffic control measures throughout the work area.
It’s currently anticipated that the project will be completed by the end of October, 2024. Note – all schedules are subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances. The completion of work is also largely dependent on the contractor’s schedule and when city inspectors are able to sign-off on the work. City staff are currently inspecting the contractor’s recent work to ensure it meets the contract specifications. Any roadway panels that do not comply with the contract will be replaced at the contractor’s expense.
Construction Underway and Upcoming
In addition to the ongoing replacement of roadway panels, the installation of landscape irrigation controllers and landscape plantings is currently underway. The installation of median curbs is anticipated to get underway the first week of September. While there may be some traffic control/lane closure, these two items are not expected to significantly impact use of the roadway.
It’s anticipated that paving at the intersections of Fulton/Guerneville and Fulton/Piner will take place in late September or early October. Following that, crews will continue with various smaller “punch list” items.
Project Overview
This project will widen, reconstruct, and rehabilitate one mile of Fulton Road between Guerneville Road and Piner Road, transforming it into an updated, four-lane regional/arterial street, as well as provide many other improvements.
Work hours: 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Monday thru Friday. With City approval, periodic work on nights (8:30 P.M. to 5:00 A.M.) or weekends may take place.
