Highway 1 Climbing Lane Project Update for Week of August 20th

The current phase of work on the Highway 1 Climbing Lane Project was completed on the morning of August 17th in advance of Car Week event traffic. Construction will resume regular work hours the week of August 27th.

Here is what to expect for the week of August 20th.

  • Day time off-roadway work for landscaping and miscellaneous minor work items.
  • Overnight work for crews to install traffic detectors at both Carmel Valley and Rio Roads. This will require some alternating lane closures between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m.

Looking ahead to the week of August 27th, crews will be working on both Rio Road between Highway 1 and the Crossroads Shopping Center and on Carmel Valley Road between Highway 1 and Carmel Rancho Boulevard in preparation for final paving, which is currently planned for the week of September 4. There will be additional details on this next week.
