Half Moon Bay’s Coastal Trail and Poplar Pedestrian Pathway Construction/Repair Projects

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

ENEWS. From the City of Half Moon Bay on September 14th, 2023.

Please be aware of two construction/repair projects along the coastline: culvert repair under the Coastal Trail, and asphalt crack seal repair on the Poplar Pedestrian Pathway.

 

The City has contracted with Half Moon Bay Grading and Paving to repair an existing culvert, headwall, and outfall that travels underneath the Coastal Trail approximately 1,000 feet north of Poplar Street, in line with Myrtle Street. The culvert outfalls just west of the Coastal Trail and has experienced severe erosion due to the major winter storms.

 

The scope of work includes redirecting the Coastal Trail approximately 30 feet inland of its existing location. This project is necessary to avoid substantial trail closures in the future due to increasing impacts of climate change. Work on this project is underway and is anticipated to continue through Saturday, September 30, 2023. If in the project area, please proceed with caution. Certain construction activities will require temporary trail closure/detours due to safety concerns, so please anticipate using alternative routes.

 

Additionally, the City has contracted with the same company to perform crack sealing of the existing cracks along the Poplar Pedestrian Pathway located parallel to Poplar Street west of Railroad Street. Crack sealing is an important step in maintaining the existing pathway in anticipation of future rain events.

 

Construction on this project is expected to start within the next couple of weeks and last through the end of September. Be sure to proceed with caution through this construction area, and anticipate using alternative routes.

 

 

Proyectos de construcción/reparación de senderos costeros y caminos peatonales de álamos

Tenga en cuenta dos proyectos de construcción / reparación a lo largo de la costa: reparación de alcantarillas debajo del sendero costero y reparación de sellos de grietas de asfalto en el sendero peatonal Poplar.

 

La Ciudad ha contratado a Half Moon Bay Grading and Paving para reparar una alcantarilla, un muro de cabecera y un desagüe existentes que viajan por debajo del Sendero Costero aproximadamente 1,000 pies al norte de Poplar Street, en línea con Myrtle Street. La alcantarilla desciende justo al oeste del sendero costero y ha experimentado una erosión severa debido a las grandes tormentas de invierno.

 

El alcance del trabajo incluye redirigir el sendero costero aproximadamente 30 pies tierra adentro de su ubicación existente. Este proyecto es necesario para evitar cierres sustanciales de senderos en el futuro debido a los crecientes impactos del cambio climático. El trabajo en este proyecto está en marcha y se espera que continúe hasta el sábado 30 de septiembre de 2023. Si se encuentra en el área del proyecto, proceda con precaución. Ciertas actividades de construcción requerirán el cierre / desvío temporal del sendero debido a preocupaciones de seguridad, así que anticipe el uso de rutas alternativas.

 

Además, la Ciudad ha contratado a la misma compañía para realizar el sellado de grietas de las grietas existentes a lo largo del camino peatonal Poplar ubicado paralelo a Poplar Street al oeste de Railroad Street. El sellado de grietas es un paso importante para mantener la vía existente en previsión de futuros eventos de lluvia. Se espera que la construcción de este proyecto comience en las próximas semanas y dure hasta finales de septiembre. Asegúrese de proceder con precaución a través de esta área de construcción y anticipe el uso de rutas alternativas.
