Drivers around Yolo County should prepare for some disruptions next week, with road closure plans confirmed by the county's Flood Control and Water Conservation District and Public Works Division. A deteriorating culvert pipeline on County Road 96, located approximately three miles northwest of Davis, is set for a much-needed overhaul. The repair work is scheduled to take place from tomorrow through Wednesday, according to the Yolo County website on Thursday.
The replacement work will require a full closure of County Road 96 between County Roads 29 and 30, beginning at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow and continuing through 5:00 p.m. Wednesday. According to the announcement, the Yolo County Public Works Road Maintenance crew will implement traffic management to guide commuters through the affected area. Detours will be in place to redirect traffic around the construction zone, and access to properties and businesses within the closure area will be maintained.
The Yolo County website notes that the culvert replacement is a necessary measure to maintain infrastructure supporting irrigation and storm drainage. Travelers are encouraged to use alternate routes during the closure. For current road updates, including a detailed map of closures and detours, residents can visit www.YoloCounty.gov/road-closures.
