Noisy paving work to continue throughout the morning on Friday, May 3
Be warned: The City of Alameda [1] will continue to remove existing railroad tracks and prepare Clement Avenue [2] for paving this Thursday evening, May 2, starting at 10 p.m., and then noisy paving work will continue throughout the morning on Friday, May 3.
This work, which is part of the Clement Avenue project construction [3], is similar to what has been completed on Clement Avenue between Broadway and Willow Street in recent weeks.
What to Expect
- Nighttime closure: The Park Street [4] and Clement Avenue intersection will close on Thursday, May 2, at 10 p.m., and is expected to reopen by Friday, May 3, at 6 a.m.
- Detours: Detours will be in place during the late-night/overnight closure.
- Noisy paving work: Pavement work will continue on Clement Avenue throughout Friday morning, May 3. Expect noise outside of the usual construction hours (7 a.m. to 7 p.m.), particularly for the blocks between Broadway and Oak Street.
- Project progress: Upon completion of this work, two-way traffic will return to Clement Avenue, and on-street parking will be restored where available.
- Next phase: Intermittent detours and parking restrictions may still be necessary as construction continues, leading to final paving, improved pedestrian access, and the installation of a two-way separated bikeway later this year.
