Calaveras County – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is preparing to begin spring construction to complete a project installing retaining walls along State Route 4 (SR-4) near Calaveras Big Trees State Park. The project has completed installation of retaining walls for sediment control, improved culverts and drainage systems, and re-constructed roadside shoulders along a half-mile segment of SR4, just west of the entrance to Big Trees State Park. Guardrail work and some additional drainage and grading work remains to finalize this project.

Work is scheduled to begin during the week of May 6, 2019, and be completed in Fall 2019. One-way traffic control will be used and motorists should expect 10-minute delays. Work is scheduled to be done mostly in the day. K.W. Emerson, Inc. of San Andreas, CA is the contractor for this project. Work is scheduled to begin as listed, but is subject to change due to traffic incidents, weather, availability of equipment and/or materials and construction related issues.
