Traffic Alert: SR-29, South Kelly Road Traffic Signal Fix
Caltrans is working to repair the traffic light, a process that will take about a week.
From Caltrans: Caltrans is scheduled to perform work to fix the traffic signal at the intersection of State Route 29 (SR-29) and South Kelly Road in Napa June 21 through June 28. Most of the work will be performed during the day, but some overnight work will make it necessary to turn the signal off temporarily for two overnight periods only.
Work on the signal is scheduled to begin June 21 and finish up June 28, weather and other factors permitting. During the daytime work beginning June 21, the shoulder of the road will be closed and the signal will be in operation. No lanes will be closed during any of the work.
The traffic signal will remain operative during daytime work. During work taking place for two overnight periods, the signal will be temporarily inoperative to accommodate the work. The signal will be temporarily inoperative starting at 9:00 PM June 26, becoming operative again at 4:00 AM June 27 and remaining operative all day. Then, at 9:00 PM June 27, the light will become inoperative, becoming operative again at 4:00 AM June 28.

The work on the signal at South Kelly Road is being done to reconfigure the electrical pull boxes that send the signals to make the light change so that the boxes won’t flood and short out the wiring during the rain.
