Some Caltrans road projects will impact traffic in the Mother Lode this week, from August 10th to the 16th.
On Highway 49, a moving, alternating lane closure between the Mariposa County line and Moccasin Creek will allow for pavement marker replacement Monday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
On Highway 49 there is a project to upgrade pedestrian facilities on Highway 49 to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act standards. Construction of a new intersection signal, curb ramps, and sidewalks are expected to take approximately 14 months. George Reed, Inc. of Modesto, CA will perform the work on this $8 million project.
On Highway 108, a moving, alternating lane closure between Hidden Acres Road and Sonora Pass will allow for a striping operation Monday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.

Motorists should expect 5 to 10-minute delays and use alternate routes whenever possible.
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.
