  • Temporary detours will be in effect
  • Motorists should follow the instructions posted on all on-site signage

These closures will enable crews to work on a new pedestrian overcrossing at Riverside Avenue, which will replace the current overcrossing.

When complete, the new overcrossing will extend across Amador Street, enhancing safety for Riverside Elementary School students and the community.
