Document Description
This project proposes to repair the road base and surface condition of the County Road segments identified above. The project will improve the pavement condition and lifespan of these roads.
Project roads will be rehabilitated with full depth reclamation at multiple sections along the length of the roads. Areas where terrain is unsuitable for full depth reclamation equipment may receive multiple lifts of asphalt or other suitable treatment to correct or preserve the existing roadway. The road will be resurfaced with a single chip seal
at the Comptche Ukiah Road, Point Cabrillo Road, Caspar Road, and Caspar Street segments and a double chip seal at the Caspar Little Lake Road, Fern Creek Road, and Caspar Orchard Road segments. The project will take place within the existing road Right-of-Way. The newly resurfaced road segments will receive new traffic striping and pavement markings. Rehabilitation of the road surface will enhance the safety of the traveling public. No trees will be removed and disturbance to vegetation will be minimal. Project roads will remain open with traffic control at each work location during construction. The project will not impact sensitive cultural or biological resources. The work is anticipated to begin and be completed during summer 2026. Beneficiaries of the project are the traveling public.
