The contract also covers projects in the Tahoe area on Alpine Meadows Road from Deer Park to Bear Creek Bridge and Olympic Valley Road from Russel Road to Christy Hill Road.

The second contract, for $729,535 with Pavement Coatings Co., will provide surface treatment projects for nearly 10 miles of road acoss 19 locations in unincorporated areas of Auburn, Meadow Vista and Colfax.

The third contract, for $3 million, is for storm damage repairs on Summer Star Way in Newcastle, which is the lone entrance and exit road for the Dream Ranch subdivision. During the 2022-23 winter storms a 200 foot corrugated metal pipe culvert washed out. The project will include reconstructing the culvert, headwalls, roadway embankment and 100 feet of pavement.

The county has applied for Federal Emergency Management Agency reimbursement funding for the Summer Star Road repair project.
