TRAFFIC ALERT: Prepare for Delays on Monterey This Week

Workers continue to construct drainage and traffic flow improvements on Monterey Avenue from Fred Waring Drive north to Gran Via and on westbound Fred Waring from San Pablo Avenue to Monterey.

On Monday July 1, workers will be digging up a portion of the roadway to install conduit. Northbound traffic on Monterey will be reduced to one lane. The signal at Monterey and Park View/College of the Desert entrance could be placed in flash mode. This phase of the work will take approximately two hours.

Temporary lane closures are occurring throughout the project with Monterey Avenue periodically reduced to one lane in each direction, and westbound Fred Waring Drive periodically reduced to one lane.

Commuters will experience delays and are encouraged to use alternate routes or allow extra time. Alternate routes include Portola Avenue and Highway 111.

•  WHEN:  Conduit work on Monday, July 1, from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. with construction on the entire project continuing through Wednesday, September 4
