State Route 4 Delta Pavement Improvement Project

Project Description

This CAPM project on State Route (SR) 4 from Contra Costa County Line to 0.2 Mile East of South Whiskey Slough Road proposes to repair failed areas of pavement (dig outs) and then cold plane and overlay the existing pavement width from the eastbound edge of pavement (EP) to the west bound EP. Shoulder backing will be placed along the EPs in both directions. It also proposes to upgrade departure barriers, electrical elements, traffic management systems, lighting systems, and replace sign panels.
