Dilapidated sections of Highway 89 in Meeks Bay will be repaired starting Monday in conjunction with a Caltrans water-quality improvement project.

Work started in May on a $20 million project from Meeks Creek to just north of Emerald Bay, about a seven-mile stretch of the highway.

The project also calls for an asphalt overlay of the highway. Sections of the existing roadway are in need of repair prior to the resurfacing. Delta Construction was awarded the $923,000 contract to do that work.

The pavement work, scheduled for Scenic Drive in Rubicon Bay to Meeks Creek, will be Monday through Thursday from 6am-5pm. It will require one-way traffic control. It’s expected to be completed in mid-August.

Work on the water-quality project is taking place from 6pm-6am Monday through Friday. It will continue into mid-October. It will be finished in fall 2015.
