• County Approves Gridley Area Road Projects (gridleyherald.com) — Richvale drivers can expect future safety and pavement upgrades as Butte County’s new SB 1 transportation list specifically funds work on Richvale roads, nearby Gridley routes, and regional bridges. The 2026-27 plan outlines multimillion‑dollar investments in edge lines, guardrails, rubberized pavement, and bridge maintenance across south county, aiming to improve mobility in smaller communities without tapping the county’s general fund.
