Calistoga Road Pavement Rehabilitation and Utility Improvements Project Community Meeting

The City of Santa Rosa held a community meeting on June 15, 2026, to discuss the Calistoga Road Pavement Rehabilitation and Utility Improvements Project. The project, with an estimated construction cost of $12.7 million funded partly by California's SB1 Road Repair and Accountability Act, involves improving 1.1 miles of Calistoga Road with full depth reclamation, utility upgrades including water and sewer pipe replacements, ADA-compliant pedestrian curb ramps, buffered and protected bike lanes, and bus stop enhancements. Construction began on June 8, 2026, and is expected to complete by August 2027. The meeting covered construction sequencing, traffic management, and community impact mitigation, including coordination with emergency services and utility providers like PG&E. Residents raised questions about traffic safety, school zone impacts, utility disruptions, and project details, which city officials addressed, emphasizing safety goals and ongoing communication through newsletters and a project website. No new contract awards or procurement decisions were announced during the meeting.
