(City of Yuba City release)– On May 8, 2023, the City’s contractor will begin implementing a traffic shift on Bridge Street between Gray Avenue and Cooper Avenue to facilitate the construction of the new westbound lanes and center median for the Bridge Street Widening Project. The travel lanes will be shifted to the south edge of Bridge Street, and on-street parking will be eliminated. Access to driveways on the south side of Bridge Street will remain open. However, access to Brown Avenue, Fippins Avenue, and Hughes Avenue on the north side of Bridge Street will be closed.

This traffic shift is expected to remain in place through mid-August.
During this time, the traffic signals at Gray Avenue, Clark Avenue, and Cooper Avenue will not have vehicle detection and will operate on a timed sequence. Motorists should anticipate delays at each intersection and are encouraged to use alternate routes.

The City will optimize the signals as best we can for a construction zone.

The City of Yuba City is committed to providing the highest quality service. At the same time, we expect impacts to be minimal, and we would like to thank all residents who travel on Bridge Street for their cooperation and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the planned road construction, please contact Public Works at 530-822-4626 or kbradford@yubacity.net
