MENDOCINO COUNTY - The Jack Peters Creek Bridge Widening and Rail Upgrade project on Route 1, just north of the community of Mendocino is scheduled to begin construction on May 6, and motorists can expect up to 10-minute delays weekdays. Starting June 17, a temporary traffic signal system will be installed, and those delays will occur 24 hours a day.

Built in 1939, the bridge will be expanded to accommodate two 12-foot wide lanes, two 6-foot wide shoulders, and a 6-foot wide separated pedestrian walkway on the west side of the Bridge that will link the California Coastal Trail from County Road 500 D to Lansing Drive. 

Construction is expected to be complete in Fall 2025.
