Project Overview
Caltrans will perform roadway pavement rehabilitation on approximately six miles in both northbound and southbound travel directions of State Route 29 (SR-29) also known as Sonoma Boulevard in Vallejo.
Additionally, Caltrans will also add new Complete Street project elements (including ADA accessible curb ramps, curb bulb outs, enhanced crosswalks, plant new grass in various medians, add new marked bike lanes and add new street lighting) on various sections of SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard in South Vallejo, Downtown Vallejo, Vallejo’s Redwood Street and Valle Vista Avenue Business District and North Vallejo.
The project will be located on SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard beginning at Maritime Academy Drive in South Vallejo and ending at the Napa County line past Mini Drive in North Vallejo.
Project Purpose
Caltrans will enhance safety on SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard by addressing roadway pavement conditions by repaving this main north-south travel route through the heart of Vallejo.

What To Expect
What should motorists, residents and businesses on SR-29 expect during construction?
Caltrans does not plan to completely close SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard during the work. One lane in each direction on SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard will always remain open.
However, during construction, motorists, residents and businesses on SR-29/Sonoma Boulevard should expect various lane reductions, daytime construction noise and dust, various alternating temporary sidewalk closures, various temporary alternating driveway closures.
Caltrans will provide more detailed times and dates regarding construction activities as soon as information becomes available.
Information will be shared through various communication outlets which may include Caltrans Social Media, traditional media and other community based communications and will also be posted on this project’s website throughout the project.
Caltrans appreciates the public’s patience and understanding as we work to improve and maintain our state’s highways, bridges and tunnels.
