August 2011-September 2013
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:

On Sunday, 4/29, water utility work will begin near the AMC in Blake Wilbur Drive. This work will be performed at night and will require some traffic changes between 8 pm-5 am.

Weekday work (4/30-5/4)

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 will continue to install a new hot water line on Quarry Road. A portion of this work will continue to take place outside of the K-Rail in the Quarry Extension. Access to the Emergency Department will be maintained at all times.
Work to install new power line on Quarry Road will also continue.
Work on the chilled water line and the new power lines will continue on Welch Rd, moving south. This work will occur near the driveway entrance to 801 Welch next week. Access in and out of the entrance to 801 Welch will be maintained at all times via flagmen and signage. The existing gas main will be exposed in front of 777 Welch. Access in and out of 777 Welch will be maintained at all times. Flaggers will be onsite to assist with traffic flow if needed.
Please be cautious of construction trucks entering the road. Access to the Emergency Room will be maintained at all times.
