Drivers urged to watch for local road work

LAKE COUNTY – A number of county road projects are under way and local drivers should plan ahead to avoid delays.


The Lake County Public Works Department reported that Bartlett Springs Road between the Lake/Colusa County Line (at Four Corners and Walker Ridge Road) to Mile Post Marker 28.5 will be closed to all traffic for an emergency bridge replacement.


The closure is expected to last through the middle of November. Signs and barricades are in place to alert the traveling public of the need to use alternate routes.


Kelsey Creek Drive at mile post marker 2.9 will be subject to single-lane traffic control with 20-minute maximum delays between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. in order to complete storm damage repairs. Work on this project also is expected to last through the middle of November.


Beginning at 7 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 27, and lasting through Friday, Oct. 31, at 7 p.m., Kelsey Creek Drive at mile post marker 2.9 will be closed to all traffic. Signs and barricades will be in place to alert the traveling public of the need to use alternate routes.


The Department of Public Works asks drivers to use caution in these areas, and thanks the public in advance for its patients and understanding while repairs take place.
