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.

Sir Francis Drake Boulevard Road Paving

Description

Overview

The County’s unincorporated road network pavement condition has improved notably in the last decade due to concerted efforts to invest in preserving this infrastructure. The work to be conducted on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard from Pine Hill Drive (near Chicken Ranch Beach) to Pierce Point Road and will generally consist of full width pavement overlay and conform grinding, replacing damaged guardrails, and updating pavement markings.

Funding

The estimate for this project is $1.3 million and will be funded by the County's Road & Bridge Fund.

Traffic impacts

Construction will take place during weekday daytime hours with traffic control measures in place. Five-minute delays should be expected during the required lane closures, with alternating two-way traffic being controlled by flaggers. However, access will always be provided for active emergency service vehicles. Every effort will be made to provide advanced notice and minimize inconvenience to residents. There will be occasional 30-minute traffic delays at driveways and cross streets when final paving activities are underway. For those extended delays, specific days/times will be notified directly to the impacted addresses in advance of the scheduled work.
