With Santa Cruz County's existing sewer infrastructure aging, the Santa Cruz County Sanitation District is continually working to
replace portions of the existing sewer system in a timely manner. This
construction project will replace the existing sewers along 17th Avenue, Felt
Street, and 24th Avenue which have reached the end of their useful
life. Because of the scale of this project particular consideration
is being given to timing, traffic flow, detours, and impacts to residents
and businesses.
Traffic control and partial road closures affecting 17th Avenue,
Felt Street, and 24th Avenue will be necessary on a daily basis between 8:30
a.m. and 4:30 p.m. During these working hours, one-lane, two-way
traffic control will be available for vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians. The
area will be subject to traffic delays and periods of complete road closure
within the project limits and adjoining cross streets. Use of alternate
routes during construction are highly recommended. Detour routes will be
provided and signed.
