AGOURA HILLS, CA — The City of Agoura Hills posted an update to its Roadside Drive Bridge Widening Project construction Wednesday, displaying the progress on the 10-month project.

The expansion of the current 30-foot bridge will allow space for a sidewalk leading up to the bridge and an expansion of the sidewalk on the bridge itself, Agoura Hills public works Director Jessica Forte told the Acorn.

The construction has stopped westbound traffic on Roadside Drive between Kanan Road and Cornell Road. The city suggested that no cars park in the area throughout the duration of the project.
