(PLACERVILLE, CA) – El Dorado County Department of Transportation has scheduled weeknight lane closures on El Dorado Hills Boulevard just north of Highway 50 from October 7, 2024 through December 20, 2024 between 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM.  At least one lane will be always open in each direction during construction at night. All lanes will be open to traffic between 5:00 AM and 7:00 PM.

The closures are necessary for the construction of the El Dorado Hills Boulevard Saratoga Way Turn Lanes Project.  The work includes extending the left turn pocket for Saratoga Way on northbound El Dorado Hills Boulevard, extending the left turn pocket to the Raley’s shopping center from southbound El Dorado Hills Boulevard, and adding a new right turn pocket for Saratoga Way on southbound El Dorado Hills Boulevard. Additional improvements include ADA upgrades to existing curb ramps and storm drainage improvements.

The nighttime lane closures are necessary to construct the project safely while minimizing daytime impacts to motorists.  Changeable message signs will be placed on El Dorado Hills Boulevard and Saratoga Way by Monday, September 30, 2024, notifying motorists of the upcoming construction activity. These message signs will also 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 this road closure causes. For questions regarding this construction, please contact the County at (530) 621-4609.
