The Town of Portola Valley will be upgrading or installing traffic improvements at the locations listed below that are within the vicinity of your property. Typical installations include replacement of warning signs, additional warning signs, and pavement markings.

 

The Project is planned to run from September 7, 2021 – October 15, 2021.

Traffic controls within the construction areas will be in place. Normal construction hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.  We are aware there will be residents and businesses who will be inconvenienced by this work and we ask for your cooperation and understanding. This improvement will result in an improved street that will serve the area for many years.

 

The proposed traffic upgrades and improvements were a result of community requests and years of effort and discussion by the Town’s Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Traffic Safety Committee (BPTS), which culminated in a Pedestrian Safety Study adopted by the Town Council in 2019. The topic was also presented at an Architectural Site Control Commission (ASCC) meeting on February 10, 2020. Meeting notices to the ASCC meeting were also sent to adjacent property owners within 300’ of the improvements.  Typical installations include replacement of warning signs, additional warning signs, and pavement markings.
