On Monday, Dec. 18, 2017, the following turn restrictions will be installed within the Willows neighborhood:
- No right turns from Chester, Durham & O’Keefe to Willow Road, 3-7 p.m. weekdays (Except SamTrans and school buses)
- No left turns from Woodland to Baywood, 3-7 p.m. weekdays
These restrictions will apply to all vehicles. While drivers adjust to these changes, conditions may temporarily worsen, but are expected to improve. Please drive carefully, be alert and be patient during the adjustment period.
These changes are being implemented to help ease the congestion within the Willows neighborhood that was exacerbated by the Willow-101 interchange construction. These signs are a temporary measure during the Willow-101 interchange construction, expected to be complete in early 2019.
Please send questions, comments and observations via email to the Transportation Division or call 650-330-6770. City staff will be performing on-going observations including during school dismissal periods to determine if the changes are effective and if any adjustments may need to be made to the locations and/or hours. Having input directly from the local neighborhood is valuable as we evaluate the effectiveness of these changes. We expect to return to the City Council at a January 2018 meeting to share an update on the progress observed.
Keep posted with the City’s project webpage and Construction News Updates.
