DOT first brought its draft proposal to the board May 8 for review and consideration. At that time, supervisors basically accepted the department’s recommendations and directed staff to bring it back in June for final approval.Maintenance work on four bridges is included in the plan, however no work has been done to date. The DOT schedules calls for maintenance to occur over the next four to five years. Those bridges are on Mt. Aukum Road at the North Fork, Cosumnes River; Ice House Road at the Jones Fork of Silver Creek; Bayne Road at Dutch Creek and Cosumnes Mine Road also on the river’s North Fork.

Design work on the parkway is approximately 60 percent complete and environmental documents have been filed and approved.
