For immediate release: June 30, 2021

The Levee Improvements Project will conduct additional paving work along Beach Park Boulevard to expand and maximize safety efforts in the area on or around Monday, July 12.

“Safety is the project’s first priority and the work that will be completed will support this by patching a pavement crack in, and adjacent to, the bicycle lane at various locations along Beach Park Boulevard,” said Project Manager Paul Nagengast. “We know the project impacts can be an inconvenience, especially along Beach Park Boulevard, and so we highly encourage the use of alternative routes to avoid the work area.”

During the three-day paving operation, Beach Park Boulevard will include temporary traffic control measures including one-way traffic with an escort pilot car to safely lead drivers through the work zone. The project team and the City of Foster City would like to remind community members to use extra caution when driving along Beach Park Boulevard.

As construction continues, the community is reminded that the closed, fenced trail and staging areas are not safe for the public and trespassing into fenced areas is prohibited at all times. Also, please remember that bike lanes are for bicyclists only, while sidewalks are for pedestrians, joggers, non-motorized scooters, rollerbladers and skateboarders.

To learn more about the project visit the project website: www.FosterCityLevee.org, where community members can review detour maps, the construction timeline and levee renderings, read through Frequently Asked Questions, and even sign up for regular construction updates.

Any construction-related inquiries may be emailed to leveeproject@fostercity.org or can be reported to the project hotline at 1-800-213-6320 (calls will typically be returned within 24 hours).
