Completion date of Fanny Bridge/ SR89 project pushed out, final stage may start in 2020
Submitted by paula on Mon, 04/29/2019 - 5:29pm
The SR89/Fanny Bridge Community Revitalization Project on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe has not progressed as expected and completion will not happen in 2019 though lots of work is scheduled.
Weather, utilities and construction scheduling have put it well behind the original 2018 planned completion and now construction work will be getting off to a late start in 2019 because of high water levels at the lake and Truckee River after an above average winter of snow and rain. Crews are expecting to start around mid-June.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - With three major road construction projects on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe this summer, both residents and visitors alike will have their patience put to the test as they navigate local roads.

Event Date:
April 24, 2019 - 5:30pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Long has been the joke that there are two seasons in Lake Tahoe, winter and roadwork. Both are holding up true for 2019 as we leave a long and heavy winter and prepare for several road construction projects.
On Wednesday, April 24, CalTrans is inviting the public to come out and learn about their three projects scheduled to begin on US 50 in the Lake Tahoe Basin this summer. The public meeting will be in the South Tahoe High School Student Union from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

US50 reopens after car hits boulder on Echo Summit
Submitted by paula on Thu, 04/11/2019 - 1:35pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - At approximately 1:39 p.m. Thursday a boulder came off the mountainside right into the path of a pick-up truck traveling westbound on Highway 50 over Echo Summit near Johnson Pass Road.
The driver hit the boulder and his vehicle had to be towed from the scene, according to the California Highway Patrol in Meyers.
There were no injuries in the incident. As Caltrans was clearing the lane and the vehicle hooked up to be moved there was one-way traffic over the summit. All was cleared in under an hour.
Highway 50 is now open and free of controls.
2nd Bi-Annual Basin Blitz shows Caltrans renovations help Lake Tahoe
Submitted by paula on Wed, 04/10/2019 - 11:03pm
The League to Save Lake Tahoe held its second bi-annual Basin Blitz this spring to assess progress in improving Lake Tahoe’s stormwater infrastructure (pipes, drains and sediment-catching basins). These features flow directly into Lake Tahoe and carry fine sediment pollution from our roads and neighborhoods into the lake, further degrading its clarity.
Lake Tahoe area roadwork April 7 - 13, 2019
Submitted by paula on Sun, 04/07/2019 - 10:47pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Major Caltrans roadwork projects around Lake Tahoe will not start until at least May 1, and in the case of the $35M Tahoe City project, until mid-June due to the height of the Truckee River. In the meantime, there will be short-term projects.
Here is the week's roadwork for Caltrans for the week:
SHORT-TERM PROJECTS
State Route 49 (El Dorado County) at the Weber Creek Bridge: Motorists can expect intermittent one-way traffic control from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday for guardrail replacement work.
Highway reopens after another snow slide closes Echo Summit
Submitted by paula on Sun, 04/07/2019 - 7:14pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Travelers over Highway 50 and Echo Summit today had some challenges, once after the road was closed for avalanche control, and a second time when a snow slide covered the road.
One person was injured when their car was involved in the snow slide. They were transferred to the hospital with non-serious injuries according to the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office (EDSO). Another buried car had no injuries involved.
South Lake Tahoe street rehabilitation plan presented to City Council
Submitted by paula on Wed, 04/03/2019 - 8:34pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Road rehabilitation has long been a concern of City Council, but there hasn't always been money in the budget to do anything more than patching, pothole filling and some resurfacing. With almost 130 miles of roads (260 lane miles) maintained by the City of South Lake Tahoe, with many of them past their prime, it would take millions of dollars to get all of them to a top rating.
SR89 around Emerald Bay reopens after snowslide removed
Submitted by paula on Wed, 04/03/2019 - 12:42pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Just before noon Wednesday the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) reopened State Route 89 around Emerald Bay. Snow slides covered the roadway on Monday, forcing the closure of one of two routes between the north and south shores of Lake Tahoe.
Motorists should still use caution when traveling roads in the Sierra as other small snow slides have been reported along Highway 50 at Echo Summit as well as SR89.

Planned Meyers roundabout project to get underway in April
Submitted by paula on Wed, 03/06/2019 - 11:41pm
LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) plans to start work in April on their $4.1M project to convert the existing T-intersection at US50 and SR89 in Meyers into a three-leg roundabout.
Federal funds will be used to create what transportation officials say is a safety project by reducing the number and/or severity of collisions at the intersection. At this intersection there were 16 accidents on the Highway 50 side, and four accidents on the Highway 89 side from 2008 to 2013. There were no fatalities in those accidents.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Traffic is nothing new in South Lake Tahoe and Meyers, but Sunday traffic leaving Lake Tahoe has become worse once tech-savvy drivers learned how to navigate side roads. Residents cannot leave their homes for fear they won't be able to get back for hours, and drivers trying to make it back to Sacramento and the Bay Area get frustrated with standstill hours-long lines.

CHP to continue testing electronic closure of roads in Meyers
Submitted by paula on Sun, 02/17/2019 - 7:30pm
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) electronic closure testing on two roads in the Meyers area this weekend is working but a glitch in the system will continue to direct visitors in the area through neighborhoods as they make their way west towards Sacramento and the Bay Area.
