(PLACERVILLE, CA) – El Dorado County Department of Transportation announces the full closure of Greenstone Road between Davidson Road and Quail Valley Road beginning Monday, April 20, 2020 through September 2020.

Construction of the Greenstone Road at Slate Creek Bridge Replacement Project will resume on Monday, April 20, 2020.  The work this year includes construction of a new cast-in-place concrete slab bridge over Slate Creek, removal of the existing bridge and obliteration of the existing roadway alignment, grading and paving new bridge approaches and re-alignment of the new roadway, among other items of work.

The full closure of Greenstone Road between Davidson Road and Quail Valley Road will be safer for construction and will reduce the time it takes to construct the project. While the closure is in place both directions of Greenstone Road will be detoured. The detour will be posted on the affected roadways.  The Detour Plan is attached. Motorists are encouraged to take other alternate routes around the area which also bypass the closures.

Changeable message signs will be placed on Greenstone Road by Monday, April 13, 2020 notifying motorists of the upcoming closure. These message signs will be used to update motorists of any changes to the length of the closure during construction.

The County sincerely appreciates the cooperation and patience of motorists that use this roadway and we apologize for any inconvenience as a result of this road closure. For questions regarding this construction, please contact the County at (530) 642-4977.
