Humboldt 101 Drainage North

Caltrans proposes to rehabilitate approximately 51 drainage systems at various locations on U.S. Highway 101 in Humboldt County from north of the Rio Dell area to the Del Norte County line. Additional traffic management upgrades are also planned.

Project Description

The project’s identified drainage systems need repairs, replacement, or capacity enhancements. The work is needed to repair failed and deteriorated drainage systems to prevent potential roadway damage resulting from drainage system failures. Traffic management upgrades include improvements to signals and changeable message signs.

Timeline

Construction is anticipated to begin in the spring of 2025 and end in fall 2026.

Traffic Impacts

Traffic impacts will be minimal. Lane closures will be required at several locations with 5-minute delays due to one-way traffic control.
