Body

The Cliff Drive Vision Zero Project is in final design. Thank you to all the residents for providing feedback on the design over the past decade. Please visit the Project website to view the project plans and renderings. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2027.

Before this Project can begin, the Water Main Replacement on Cliff Drive and surrounding streets needs to occur first. This Project is replacing aging water main infrastructure, including piping, valves, and hydrants, in order to maintain the quality and reliability of water service in advance of the upcoming Cliff Drive Vision Zero Project. Construction will start early October 2025 at the Las Positas Road/Cliff Drive Roundabout and will continue east along Cliff Drive. Construction will occur Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on the following streets:

  • Meigs Road from Ricardo Avenue to Salida Drive    
  • Red Rose from Meigs Road to Camino Calma
  • Red Rose Lane
  • Cliff Drive near the Roundabout to La Marina
  • La Marina

Construction on the following streets will occur overnight Monday through Thursday from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.:

  • Las Positas Road/ Cliff Drive Roundabout
  • Intersection of Cliff Drive and Meigs Road

Impacted streets will be open to traffic and driveways will be accessible, but there may be temporary delays and parking restrictions. Construction will be completed in summer 2026.  We appreciate your patience and understanding during this Project.
