Beginning Monday, May 20, at 6 p.m., Road 144 at Route 20 will be fully closed as part of our ongoing efforts to replace the two Calpella bridges spanning the Russian River and Eastside Calpella Road. This closure, slated to last until the end of August, is necessary to reconstruct the intersection which features enhanced acceleration and deceleration lanes.
Additionally, Eastside Calpella Road will undergo a brief closure at a later date for the removal of the existing bridge. A detour has been arranged for commuters traveling to and from Redwood Valley and the Business District, with clear signage provided for guidance.
This $32.4 million improvement project, spearheaded by Myers and Sons Construction and supported by $5.2 million from SB 1, is anticipated to conclude in 2025.
