Concord Side Street Improvements Begin Wednesday

CONCORD, CA — The final phase of a pavement rehabilitation project will get underway Wednesday in Concord, allowing crews to repave several side streets and repair a few potholes.

According to city officials, the project includes improvements to nearly a dozen streets along Treat Boulevard, between San Miguel Road and Clayton Road. Contractors are scheduled to work Wednesday and Thursday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.

"Pavement work includes cold-in-place recycling which strengthens and puts back the existing asphalt in place, as well as installation of a top layer of rubberized asphalt to make the road quieter as vehicles drive on it," the city said. "The project also involves replacing curb ramps at intersections, some sidewalk replacement, and median landscaping improvements with irrigation between San Miguel and Cowell Road."

Here are the side streets scheduled for work:

• Ygnacio Woods Ct.
• Navaronne Way
• Kingswood Dr.
• Cuneo Dr.
• Rose Ln.
• St. Charles Place
• Arleda Ln.
• Gladstone Dr.
• Pembroke Dr.
• Turtle Creek Rd.
• Bel Air Dr.

Officials said the paving work will occur where asphalt was previously removed, along the new concrete curb ramps that were recently installed at the intersection. The project will involve a few temporary detours and traffic flaggers.

Residents can learn more about the project on the city's website.
