Caltrans will begin preliminary roadway (rock) excavation & drainage improvement work in late March for the Susanville 139 Paving Project along State Route (SR) 139, in Lassen County. The project is located just north of Chestnut Street to 2.6 miles south of Horse Lake Road. Roadway restoration work on the project will begin towards the middle of April, weather permitting.
The purpose of the project is to restore the roadway to a state of good repair so that SR 139 will be in a condition that requires minimal maintenance. The project includes rehabilitating the roadway, replace six curb ramps, upgrade guardrail, upgrade concrete barrier, widen shoulders in select locations, replace/upgrade signage, a traffic signal and culverts. The project will also bring American with Disabilities Act (ADA) elements to current standards.
TRAFFIC IMPACT: Starting the last week of March, traffic control will be in effect Monday through Friday from dawn to dusk. Delays will be up to 15 minutes. 24-hour traffic control is required during times traffic is on an unpaved surface.
This $13.8 million project includes 145 working days, with all working days requiring traffic control. The bulk of construction is expected to commence in the spring and summer as weather permits.
Hat Creek Construction & Materials Inc., North Region Construction and Caltrans District 2 thank the public and local communities for their patience during the construction of the project.
