Fairfax-Bolinas Road CONDITION UPDATES, thank you for your patience: At milepost 5.73, Fairfax-Bolinas Road will be open on weekdays and weekends from 12/16/24 through 1/1/25 (weather permitting), with traffic controlled through a single lane with alternating access. This is to accommodate the holiday traffic. From 1/2/25 through 1/5/25, the road will be closed at milepost 5.73 to allow for construction activities as the project nears completion, weather permitting. After 1/5/25, it is anticipated that the road will be closed from Azalea Hill to Ridgecrest on weekdays only. By mid-January, the project is expected to be completed and the roadway will fully reopen. See project webpage for details.

Lucas Valley Road Bridge Replacement over Miller Creek

Description

Overview

The project is in the planning phase, but will either retrofit or replace the 60-year-old, two-lane bridge over Miller Creek in Lucas Valley-Marinwood, between Mt Lassen Drive and Huckleberry Road . The current bridge configuration is a constriction to water flow in the creek that has resulted in scour and damage to the bridge foundations.

Completion of this project would ensure that travel on Lucas Valley Road over Miller Creek remains open and safe for many decades to come.

Funding

Project is estimated to cost $9.7 million. It should be noted that 80% of the cost is eligible for reimbursement under the Federal Highbridge Program, administered by Caltrans.

Traffic impacts

This will be determined closer to the construction phase. However, it is expected that vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle traffic may be diverted during construction.
