The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans District 2) and Lamb Unlimited General Engineering are preparing to begin work on the Butler Slough Culverts Project on Highway 99E in Tehama County.
The $611,000 project will provide culvert replacement at five locations near Los Molinos, from Second Avenue to just north of Cone Grove Road.
Construction activities are currently planned to start on Monday, Oct. 14. Motorists will encounter nighttime one-way traffic control with up to 10-minute delays, Monday through Friday between 7 p.m.- 7 a.m. daily.
Motorists are urged to slow down and drive carefully in and around construction areas, follow speed limit reductions in place, and allot extra time for delays.
The project is currently anticipated to be completed by mid-November, pending weather.
CalTrans advises construction projects are subject to changes without prior notice. To stay up to date on highway projects, follow on Facebook and X. Project information can also be found on the District 2 webpage.
