Asphalt Overlay Work Scheduled for Various Roads Throughout San Luis Obispo County

SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY - The County of San Luis Obispo Department of Public Works will begin an asphalt paving project on various County roads in the Whitley Gardens, Templeton, Paso Robles, and Los Osos areas.

For the safety of the public and road crews, traffic will be subject to detours or reduced to one-way controls with flaggers and pilot cars as required for each phase of the work.

The work locations are divided into 4 sites (see the attached vicinity maps). Crews will begin preliminary work on August 2 by posting 'No Parking' signs, message boards, and other construction area signs. Asphalt work will start on Site 1, in Whitley Gardens, on August 5, followed by the remaining roads in Sites 2-4.

Lane closures will occur Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Delays are expected to be up to 10 minutes during major operations. Motorists are advised to adjust their travel plans in consideration of the delays. Please refer to the map for road locations.

This work is required to maintain the pavement's condition, which will provide a smooth, safe road and avoid costly repairs in the future.

The project is funded by SB-1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. Souza Engineering Contracting, Inc. has been awarded the contract for $4,267,964.
