Roadwork is affecting traffic near you

  • Long-term projects: Construction is happening on Gilham Road between Ayres Road and Don Juan Avenue from April 14 to December 31. Crews are installing storm sewers, water quality facilities, retaining walls, ADA curb ramps, sidewalks, and paving. Flaggers will direct traffic, but the impact on traffic is expected to be low. S Garden Way is partially closed for a private housing project, leading to moderate traffic delays.
