Construction of the Mission Street Pavement Maintenance Project between the US 101 and State Street began on Monday, July 8 and will last through late September. The project includes Los Olivos Street in front of the Mission, from Laguna Street to Mission Canyon Road.

Mission Street between Highway 101 and State Street, and Los Olivos in front of the Mission, are busy corridors that are in need of significant pavement and concrete work. It’s our “Mission: Possible” to create a smoother, safer experience for drivers and pedestrians in these corridors through a comprehensive road project this summer. Watch the video to find out more, and stay tuned for a construction schedule.

The second phase of a major pavement maintenance project will take place this May and June. This phase provides crack sealing and slurry sealing of the pavement, which helps preserve and protect the underlying pavement structure and provide a new driving surface.
