Highland Ave Retaining Wall

Description

Overview

This project involves stabilizing the embankment and constructing a new retaining wall on Highland Avenue in the unincorporated San Rafael neighborhood of Country Club. The retaining wall will address damage to the roadway that occurred during the 2022-2023 winter storms.

Funding

Estimated project cost is $200K, of which $170K will be grant funded through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) emergency relief program.

Public impacts

The roadway around 340 Highland Avenue is currently closed to through traffic, but all residences are accessible. Residents on Highland should expect to continue to use alternate routes until construction is completed and the roadway can be fully opened. Residents/property owners along the road will be given advance written notifications, with a schedule, ahead of any work that requires additional portions of the road to be closed in order for them to adequately prepare.
