SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – If you’ve been driving through town lately you’ve most likely noticed the road work on Al Tahoe Boulevard.

After a restriping/lane change pilot project in 2017 that reconfigured two of the four vehicle travel lanes and added buffered bike lanes on Al Tahoe Blvd., the rest of the project has now begun. The project has been years in the making through the planning, funding, public input, and permitting stages.

Southwest Gas is in the area first to replace their gas main. In 2017 they did work in the adjacent retail center that is home to Rite Aid and Ross. They put in the current sidewalks that leveraged as part of the project by the City.
