A2 Priority Projects – Phase 2 Drainage Improvements Project:

ATTENTION: ROBIN ROAD CLOSED – CLOSURE DATES TO BE DETERMINED

The project will improve the capacity and structural deficiencies of the storm drain system that flows under Robin Road between the properties of 100 and 101 Robin Road. The improvements will minimize the risk of flooding downstream properties as well as increase the capacity of our existing infrastructure. The improvements include rehabilitating an existing culvert that runs under Robin Road between the properties mentioned above. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as the Town works to complete the project and improve the reliability of the storm drain system in this area of Town. 

To accommodate a deep vault installation in the roadway, ROBIN ROAD will be continuously closed between 100 and 101 Robin Road for approximately 2 weeks (DATES TBD). During this period, no vehicles, bicyclists, or pedestrians will have access through the closure. Construction working hours will remain between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, Monday-Friday, unless otherwise approved by the Town. However, for the public’s safety, this section of Robin Road will remain closed continuously and overnight during this period. All residents along Robin Road will still have access to their properties via either Ralston Ave or San Raymundo Road per the approved access plan on the back of this sheet. Please see detour map below.
