City News and Updates

SR-75 Medians Improvement Project

Work continues on the SR-75 median between Pomona Avenue and Rendova Road. The project includes new landscaping and irrigation, LED streetlights, and improvements to the electrical and drainage systems.

Unforeseen challenges during construction required changes to the scope of work and additional review and approvals. The City now anticipates completing the project in February 2027. The revised schedule depends on continued coordination with SDG&E and Caltrans, the timing of approvals, and weather conditions.

The City recognizes the inconvenience of the extended construction schedule and appreciates the community’s continued patience. We’ll share updates as more information becomes available.

Weather Preparedness and Community Safety

Community Townhalls: Mark Your Calendars!

The City invites residents to join Public Safety leadership for a series of Community Town Halls focused on storm preparedness, potential El Niño impacts, and community safety.

These discussions will provide residents with important updates, practical preparedness tips, and available resources to help protect their homes and families during changing weather conditions. Residents are encouraged to attend, ask questions, and learn how the City is preparing for the storm season ahead.

Remaining Community Town Hall Schedule:

• November 19 at 5 p.m. - Coronado Community Center, Nautilus Room
• December 7 at 5 p.m. - Coronado Community Center, Nautilus Room

Street Sweeping Supports Storm Preparedness

During the rainy season, street sweeping helps keep leaves and debris out of storm drains. Sweeping along the curb clears gutters so rainwater can flow into storm drains, reducing the risk of localized flooding during heavy rain.

Please move your vehicle on scheduled street sweeping days and observe posted no-parking signs so crews can sweep all the way to the curb. Sweeping days and frequency vary by location, so check the City’s street sweeping map and schedule for your street.

Sign Up for Everbridge Notifications

The City of Coronado is transitioning from Nixle to Everbridge, a free notification service for emergency alerts, road closures, bridge updates, and weather-related information.

Both systems will operate during a six-month transition. Beginning in April 2027, the City will send all mass notifications through Everbridge. To continue receiving City notifications, residents must create an Everbridge account, even if they already receive Nixle alerts.

Street Preventive Maintenance Project

Most slurry seal work in Coronado Village and the Coronado Cays is complete, and the contractor is restoring pavement markings. Some slurry seal work and asphalt repairs remain, including work in the Coronado Cays Park parking lot.

Please follow posted traffic controls and parking restrictions as work continues. The City appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation.

Parker Pump Station Update

The new Parker Pump Station at Eighth Street and Coronado Avenue is operational. Its permanent backup generator has been tested and is ready to provide power during an outage. The temporary backup generators have been removed from the site.

The replacement project improves the reliability of the City’s largest pump station, which collects stormwater and wastewater. The project will also add approximately 6,000 square feet of public green space.

The contractor has completed the generator enclosure structure and planters and expects to install the architectural finishes over the next few weeks. Upcoming site work includes fencing, retaining walls, and grading.

Thanksgiving Holiday and Trash Schedule

City offices, the Coronado Community Center, the John D. Spreckels Center, and the Coronado Public Library will be closed on Thursday, November 26, and Friday, November 27, in observance of Thanksgiving. Check the City’s Recreation website for the holiday week schedule of programs and services.

Residential trash and recycling collection will be delayed by one day for Thursday and Friday customers.

The City wishes everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving!
