Road projects are subject to change due to traffic incidents, weather, availability of equipment, and/or materials and construction-related issues. Caltrans asks motorists to obey signage and flaggers while slowing down around crews and equipment in the cone zones.
The downtown Murphys area is getting additional lighting, setting it up will impact traffic and businesses during the construction process. Details are here.
There will be traffic delays this week and continuing until the end of July on Phoenix Lake Road due to road construction adjacent to work that has been taking place recently by the Tuolumne Utilities District. Details are here.
