Thanks for your patience during the County of Riverside Transportation Department’s Roadway Resurfacing Project!
This project included pavement rehabilitation on nearly 5 miles of roadway in Idyllwild on 4 different streets.
It also resurfaced the County Maintenance Yard and Lawler Park 8 miles north of Idyllwild; completed roadway repairs on Fern Valley Road; added asphalt curbs and adjusted manholes.
We have completed about 95% of roadway improvements in the Idyllwild area. The contractor is continuing shoulder backing on Fern Valley Road and South Circle Drive. Please observe construction warning signs, follow flaggers’ directions, and expect delays while travelling through. We are trying our best to accommodate the traffic while facing challenges due to narrow road conditions. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
