On weekdays, Fairfax-Bolinas Road in West Marin is closed from Azalea Hill to Ridgecrest. On weekends, the road will be open, but traffic will be routed through a single-lane with controlled two-way access at milepost 5.73. See project webpage for details. Thank you for your patience while these projects progress.

Redwood Drive Slide Repair

Description

This is a completed project. You are in the Archived Projects section of the website. Active projects can be found on the Projects webpage.

Overview

The 2023 storms and heavy rain caused extensive damage to the roadway, which resulted in a 60-foot-long closure between 170-190 Redwood Drive in Woodacre. The affected slide area extended 50 feet downslope. To restore the road to its pre-disaster function, a new concrete retaining wall with drilled piers was constructed.

Funding

The estimated cost is $600,000. FEMA reimbursement is being sought as the damage was caused by a federally declared disaster event.

Traffic impacts

Road was closed due to the slide damage prior to the project beginning, and remained closed until project was completed. Impacted residents had access to their homes via Park Street and Carson Road.
