It’s a big construction project for a little Central Coast community. A project to replace some aging highway bridges will disrupt traffic flow in Los Alamos for more than a year.
Caltrans officials say work will start at the end of the month to replace Highway 101-Highway 135 interchange bridges. Work will include full closure of Highway 135 at times for bridge demolition, and the start of reconstruction.
During the full closure periods, a shuttle service will be available to pedestrians, those in wheelchairs, and bicyclists. Motorists will be rerouted to the Highway 101-Cat Canyon Road offramps to reach Los Alamos.
The $10-million-dollar project is expected to be completed in the summer of 2022.
