One of the first steps in the effort to expand Packard Children's Hospital and rebuild Stanford Hospital includes utility work and surface improvements. The Welch Road Utility Project includes: replacing utility services and information technology infrastructure along Welch and Quarry Roads to serve the new hospital facilities once they are built; the widening of Welch Road; replacement of sidewalks, curbs and gutters; planting of new street trees and installation of planted medians and street lighting.
Note: Access to the Emergency Room will be maintained at all times.
This week's activities:
What to expect this weekend (2/3-2/5) Hours of Construction Activity: 7am - 3:30 pm
Work will continue on Welch Road to install a new water main. Activity will occur near the driveway entrances to 777 Welch and 801 Welch. Access to the driveways will be maintained at all times.

Welch Rd is now a one-lane, one-way road going West from Quarry to Pasteur Drive. This change will be in effect for two years. We thank you for your patience regarding this significant change and ask that you please adjust your driving route accordingly. South Pasteur Drive is now a two-way two-lane road. North Pasteur Drive is closed between Blake Wilbur Drive and Sand Hill Road.
K-Rail will remain in place on the inboard side of Quarry Rd (between Welch and continuing up to the Quarry Extension near the turn to the Emergency Department) in order to facilitate ongoing utility work. This reduces Quarry to a two lane, two direction road during this time. Access will be maintained to the Emergency Department at all times.
Work on the Stanford University Lake Water project will continue in the L-3 parking lot (corner of Quarry at Welch). This is temporarily displacing some 'A' permit parking in L-3. Additional 'A' permit parking is available at the Andronico's site at the Stanford Shopping Center during this time. The Lake Water project is estimated to be completed next Friday, 2/10.
Utility work will continue in the driveway entrances to 777 and 801 Welch Road. Access to the driveways will be maintained at all times, however temporary delays may occur.
Work will begin to demolish existing sewer, water and gas utilities on Quarry Road. Work will also begin to install a new hot and chilled water line on Quarry Road.
Hardscape demolition of the parking lot behind the Blake Wilbur Clinic will continue.
Please be cautious of construction trucks entering the road. Access to the Emergency Room will be maintained at all times.
