Expect delays and detours in the Black Bart, Martin, Barbara avenues area of the South Shore later this month and into October.

Barbara Avenue is scheduled to be closed to all traffic on Sept. 23 and Sept. 28. Motorists will be detoured to Fountain Avenue.

Directional closures of Black Bart Avenue and Martin Avenue are scheduled for between 7am-7pm Sept. 21-25 and Sept. 29-Oct. 7.

This is so El Dorado County can fix the roads with an asphalt concrete overlay.

    I was talking to a one of the workers on the road construction at steamers this weekend. He told me they are purposely working as slow as possible so they can stay in Tahoe. Unbelievable.

    I don’t get it! I live on Fountain Ave and thats where the pot-holes are! There is nothing wrong with Barbara Avenue! Keep County traffic problems off of City streets! Plus, we don’t need any more truck traffic in our neighborhood! – Raises incredible dust/dirt that ends up in our creeks & the river, and ends up in the lake.

    Don’t count on it. Look at sawmill road. No scheduled road closure in bid documents. Than el dorado county granted them a 6 week road closure. That 6 weeks started in June….still closed. I heard that el dorado county officials are just retaliating against Amacker……drive past the road……no reason to still be closed. All the locals must pay. Shame on el dorado county.

    I agree the construction sucks. But having spent the first 20 of my 44 years in New England, and the next 24 here, Ya’ll have NO idea what potholes or rough roads really look like. Or corruption. It’s a science in Boston!
