The California Department of Transportation and Lamassu Utility Group, Inc. are preparing to restart work on the Westwood Beach Culverts Project on Highway 147 in Plumas County. The $583k project is providing culvert rehabilitation at eight locations near Canyon Dam, from 0.3 mile south of Indian Hills Road to 0.7 mile north of County Road A-13.
Construction activities are planned to restart Tuesday, June 24. Motorists should plan for one-way traffic control, Mondays-Fridays with up to 15-minute delays between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily.
Motorists are urged to slow down and drive carefully in and around construction areas, follow speed limit reductions in place, and allot extra time for delays. The project is currently anticipated to be completed by mid-July.
Construction projects are subject to changes without prior notice. Caltrans and its contractors do our best to keep the public informed. To stay up to date on highway projects, please follow us on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).
