May 6, 2013 

Through May, repaving will occur on a section of Santa Margarita Parkway from Avenida de Las Flores to approximately 500 feet east of Buena Suerte, (click here for a map).

The contractor will also be placing electronic message signs on the street in advance of the project.

Several residential streets in the Robinson Ranch neighborhood will also be resurfaced in May and June. Residents on the affected streets will be notified by the City's contractor, KAD Paving, Inc., in advance of each local street closure. Click here for a map of specific streets to be resurfaced.
