LAKE COUNTY – Local road projects will be ongoing in the week ahead, according to a report from the Lake County Department of Public Works.

Construction is expected to start on Lake Street in Clearlake Oaks on Monday, June 8, and continue from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday until July 17, holidays and weekends excluded.

During that time, single-lane controlled traffic will be expected, with delays of up to 20 minutes. Motorists are requested to use alternative routes during construction days and times. Those who do drive in the area should use caution.

Also beginning on June 8 and lasting until Aug. 28, Soda Bay Road between Blower Road and Cal Packing Road will be closed to all through traffic between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, weekends and holidays excluded.

The closure is planned in order to construct the realignment of two sharp curves in that section of roadway.

The road will be open to all traffic during nights and weekends, and access to local residents will be made available at all times during construction.

Signs and barriers will be in place to notify the public of the need to use alternate routes.

The Department of Public Works thanks the community in advance for its patience and understanding.
