Caltrans is hosting a meeting on Oct. 20 regarding its plans for a bridge replacement project on Highway 50 over Echo Summit.

The event is scheduled from 5:30- 7:30pm at Lake Tahoe Airport.

Community members will have the opportunity to view displays and ask questions from Caltrans staff members. A project presentation is scheduled for 6pm.

The $9 million project’s draft environmental document is currently circulating and comment cards will be available.

In addition, there will be an opportunity to provide comments and ask questions about the Meyers Intersection Improvement Project. The $3 million project proposes to convert the intersection of Highways 50 and 89 into a three-legged roundabout.

Both projects are scheduled to start construction in 2019.

    Just put a signal at the 50 / 89 intersection. It should cost substantially less than $3 mill and will keep the intersection clear for emergency vehicles and snow removal.
