This evening, construction work will commence on the Grant Street/East Street Pavement Rehabilitation (Project No. 2525) in Concord. The work, whose purpose is to cause as little inconvenience to local residents as possible, will begin on Grant Street beneath SR-242, ranging from Broadmoor Avenue to Mildred Street. It is projected to take three to four days according to the announcement by the City of Concord.

Throughout the pavement rehabilitation process, periodic closures of SR-242's exit and entrance ramps will occur. To minimize disruption, detour routes will be established. Flaggers will also be present to direct traffic and aim to reduce delays. The city council encourages citizens to take note of the advanced notification signs and avoid the construction area wherever feasible.

The undertaking forms part of a larger attempt to improve and robustly urbanize the city of Concord. Consequently, both city staff and contractors are committed to minimizing traffic impacts and communicating effectively with residents. They shared this commitment in an announcement released yesterday, appreciating the community's understanding and advising safe travel.
