The City of Holtville issued a press release this week warning residents that a section of Ninth Street will be closed for more than a month while construction crews work on improvements in the area.
Ninth Street between Beale Avenue and Slayton Road road will be closed beginning today, November 9, and will remain closed until the project is finished on January 11 of next year. In that time, crews will widen that section of Ninth Street and will also install new curbs, gutters and sidewalks.
Garbage and recycling pick-ups will take place at the edge of the road closure for residents in the affected area and construction workers will be on-hand to help move the bins during pick-up days.
An engineer from The Holt Group will also be on-hand to answer any questions residents might have, or they can also call the Resident Engineer at (760) 337-3883.
This section of the street has been dangerously narrow for as long as I can remember and I'm very happy to see this project get started, but it's a shame that it's going to take so long. I'm sure it's going to be a big pain in the neck for parents who drop kids off at the Middle School and probably for a lot of other residents in the area too. Does it really take that long to lay down some new asphalt and cement?
