Lane Closures Expected During Corte Madera Road Construction

CORTE MADERA - Construction began Oct. 27 on a new phase of an ongoing project in which the next segment of work will be on Prince Royal Passage from Paradise Drive to 300 feet south. The plan, according to the town, is for this phase to be complete by Nov. 21.

Traffic and pedestrian control will be in place for public safety, according to the city. Also, lane closures may be required, so motorists should expect a delay. Special accommodations are to be made for bicycle and pedestrian access.

The overall project includes replacing 1,900 feet of sewer line along Paradise Drive from Golden Hind Passage to Upupanda Way at the Marin County Day School entrance, sewer line on Westward Drive from Paradise Drive to 108 feet south, and sewer line on Prince Royal Passage from Paradise Drive to 255 feet south.

In the Paradise Shopping Center, sewer line is being replaced from Paradise Drive to 145 feet south. Upstream (or south) of that portion, the sewer will be cured in place pipe (CIPP) lined for 135 feet. The sewer line from 1595 Casa Buena Drive to 1585 Casa Buena Drive, and the sewer line from 1585 Casa Buena Drive to Paradise Drive under the 101 Freeway will be also be CIPP lined. Other improvements of the project include improving and reconnecting lower laterals. And, some manholes will be replaced or lined. All sewer replacements will require open trenching.

Most of the work for the project will take place Monday through Friday morning from 8:15 AM to 5:00 PM. The contractor completed the work along Paradise Drive from Golden Hind Passage to Upupanda Way at the end of August, and the work on Westward Drive in September.
