Long Beach, CA – The City of Long Beach’s contractor, All American Asphalt, is scheduled to begin construction along Alamitos Avenue in the downtown area during the week of Dec. 4, 2023, with an estimated completion date, barring weather or other unforeseen delays, by early January 2024.
Alamitos Avenue will be slurry sealed from East Ocean Boulevard to East 7th Street to extend the serviceable life of the street. Improvements will also include the installation of painted buffered bike lanes on both sides of Alamitos Avenue, new thermoplastic traffic striping, continental crosswalk markings, and traffic signage. This project is one of several projects aimed to increase bike lane connectivity across the City’s bike lane network.
The contractor is scheduled to perform work Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. “No Parking” signs will be posted for a minimum of three days prior to the start of work. Efforts will be made to maintain as much parking as possible. Intermittent intersection closures may be necessary to complete this project. While the contractor will attempt to open streets as soon as it is safe to do so, the City encourages the use of alternate routes during work hours. The contractor encourages residents to reduce water runoff from driveways and lawn irrigation into the street before and during construction activities.
The City appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation throughout this project. For more information about this project, please contact Joy Contreras, Department of Public Works Community Relations Officer, at Joy.Contreras@longbeach.gov.
