This Week’s Ukiah Streetscape Update (2/5-2/9)

Categories:

The following is a press release issued by the City of Ukiah:

Not much change in this report—obviously, the weather has not been particularly conducive to construction!

On the south side (Mill to Cherry), crews are nearly done with the work between Gobbi and Cherry, and will be working to restore lanes of traffic where possible. Then, work in this section will pause until weather improves for paving.  Joint trench work will continue between Mill and Gobbi, which will run along the west side of the street and contain underground electric communication lines.

On the north side (Norton to Henry), crews continue concrete work, weather permitting, and the electrical contractor is working to install the new streetlights. In most parts of this section, on-street parking has been restored.  The on-street parking is not very intuitive, because the orange delineators (cone-thingies) must remain in place to keep vehicles traveling in a single lane.  However, it IS okay, unless there are barricades in place that state otherwise, to park inside (to the right of) those delineators.

Where will the work occur? Completing sewer laterals and various patchwork on the south side between Cherry to Gobbi; digging joint trench for electrical and communication lines between Mill and Gobbi; on the north side, concrete work will continue, weather permitting, along with installation of street lights.

What are the construction days/hours? Construction hours will be Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. – 6 p.m., depending on the weather.

Will there be dust and noise? Yes, intermittent noise. Not much dust, thanks to the wetter weather.

Will there be any disruptions to parking access or streets? Yes. On the south side, on-street parking in the construction zone will be closed; however, on-street parking on the north side of the project is open in most areas (see above). Pedestrian access to businesses will be maintained at all times.  Through traffic on State Street will be allowed in both directions. Traffic signals at Gobbi/State and Mill/State will remain on flash.
