Paving Project Upcoming
on State Route 3 in Siskiyou County
 
REDDING – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans District 2) and Tullis, Inc. are preparing to begin work on the Montague Gap Overlay Project on State Route 3 in Siskiyou County. The $1.25 million project will replace asphalt concrete surfacing and place a thin hot mix asphalt overlay on SR 3 between Yreka and Montague, from just south of Juniper Drive to north of Calamity Lane. The project will also include shoulder backing and striping.
 
Construction activities are currently planned to start on July 11th. Motorists will encounter one-way traffic control with up to 15-minute delays, Monday through Friday during daytime hours. 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-August.
 
Construction projects are subject to changes without prior notice.  Caltrans and its contractors do our best to keep the public informed.  To stay up to date on highway projects, please follow us on Facebook and Twitter.  Project information can also be found on the District 2 webpage. The public can also call (530) 225-3426 during working hours or send an email to [email protected]. Updated highway conditions for California can be found on QuickMap and on One-Stop-Shop for the Western U.S.
