Traffic Impacts:

Some parking will be temporarily restricted in construction zones and traffic lanes will be modified during active work.

Starting Tuesday, November 10, track replacement work will begin at the intersection of 46th Avenue and Taraval Street. For the track replacement work, the intersection of 46th Avenue and Taraval Street will be closed to vehicular traffic at all hours until the work is complete---approximately one month. Signage will be in place to alert drivers to detour before they approach the intersection.

On Thursday, November 12 from 8:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., both sides of Taraval Street between 40th Avenue and Sunset Boulevard will be temporarily closed for vehicular access for one day. Signage will be in place to alert drivers to detour before they approach the work area. 

For track replacement work, traffic will be detoured at the intersections of 38th, 44th, and 45th Avenue at all times of the day until track replacement work along these segments are complete. During active construction hours, parking on both sides of the blocks will be temporarily restricted to give the crew the safety clearance they need to demo and replace the aged tracks in the center of the road and allow eastbound/westbound vehicular traffic. Parking will be returned at the end of each work day along the impacted blocks.  

   


The following two-week construction forecast is subject to change due to weather delays or unexpected field conditions.
