Pacific Coast Highway South Bay to Santa Monica Pavement Rehabilitation

PROJECT

Caltrans is closing lanes in the Cities of Redondo Beach, Torrance, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, El Segundo, Los Angeles and Santa Monica to perform pavement rehabilitation, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) curb ramp upgrades, construct   bus pads, sidewalks and bike lanes, upgrade gutter and drainage systems along with applying new striping for the lane lines. Residents and local businesses located nearby may experience noise and vibrations associated with construction activities. Construction will be performed throughout the night to minimize traffic impacts. Signs will be posted.

BACKGROUND

This is a pavement preservation project. SB 1 provides $5 billion in transportation funding annually split between the state and local agencies. Road projects progress through construction phases more quickly based on the availability of SB 1 funds, including projects that are partially funded by SB 1. For more information about other transportation projects funded by SB 1, visit www.rebuildingca.ca.gov.

This also includes guardrail, loop detectors, sign replacement, installation of new signal poles, pull boxes and modified ADA crosswalks.
