MOTORISTS WARNED TO EXPECT SHORT DELAYS AS PART OF SR-94 PROJECT

January 25, 2014 (San Diego’s East County)-- Motorists should expect short delays on portions of State Route 94 (SR-94) for about the next two weeks, weekdays only, starting Monday morning as work continues on a pavement rehabilitation project.

One-way traffic control will be in effect on eastbound SR-94 from Proctor Valley Road to Otay Lakes Road and in the westbound direction in the vicinity of Marron Valley Road starting Monday through Monday, Feb. 17, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., according to Caltrans.  No work is expected to take place during the weekends.

Construction crews are taking advantage of unseasonably warm weather to continue the project.  Flaggers will be on site directing motorists through the one-way traffic control.  Changeable message signs will be placed at both ends of the construction zone.

Motorists may experience some delays, but the traffic queue should not exceed 10 minutes in either direction. Additional closures will be announced prior to the work taking place.  The work is needed to provide a smoother ride for motorist and extend the life of the pavement.

Caltrans thanks motorists for their patience during this construction and suggests they allow extra time for their travel along these portions of SR-94.
