Contra Costa County Public Works will begin construction on the Camino Tassajara Bike Lane Gap Closure Project. The project will widen the pavement to provide bike lanes in four separate segments along Camino Tassajara between Windermere Parkway and just north of Penny Lane. Segments are as follows:
Segment 1: From 240 feet north of Penny Lane to 150 feet south of Johnston Road
Segment 2: From 1,300 feet north of Highland Road to Highland Road
Segment 3: From 700 feet south of the bridge over Tassajara Creek to 2,050 feet south of the bridge
Segment 4: From 1,600 feet north of Windemere Parkway to 350 feet north of Windemere Parkway
The project also includes drainage improvements, signing and striping improvements, and placing a slurry seal from Windemere Parkway to Lusitano Street.
Construction will begin on Monday, June 3, 2019, with completion in late November 2019, barring unforeseen circumstances. Work hours will generally be 8:30 am and 4:00 pm to minimize impacts to commute traffic. Drivers should expect delays of up to 15 minutes during construction.
Funding for this project is provided by Measure J, Tri-Valley Transportation Council, South County Area of Benefit and Southern Contra Costa (SCC) Subregional Fee Program. More information on this project can be found at: http://www.cccounty.us/pwdmap.
Dear Contra Costa County Public Works: THANK YOU! This will make it a lot safer for cyclists on Camino Tassajara. And drivers will be happier as well with us a bit more out of the way.
