Editor\u2019s note: As of Tuesday afternoon, no one at Caltrans was able to say how the fire might affect this project.<\/em><\/p>\n

Through the end of August, Highway 243 traffic will encounter disruptions similar to the ones on Highway 74 while Caltrans repaved that highway during May. <\/p>\n

Work on Highway 243 began Monday, July 15, and should be completed before September. The project was awarded to Calmex Engineering Inc. of Riverside, for $970,000.<\/p>\n

The first phase should begin in Mountain Center and work north to Marion Ridge Drive in Pine Cove. <\/p>\n

While the repaving project is being done, Caltrans also plans to seal cracks as maintenance work on Highway 243 from Banning to Black Mountain begins this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe California Move Over Law states that motorists must move over a lane when they see the flashing lights of emergency response vehicles, Caltrans vehicles and tow trucks. If you can\u2019t move over, stay if on a mountain road, then slow down. These crews will be on foot and appreciate you giving them a \u2018brake,\u2019\u201d said Shelli Lombardo, Caltrans public information officer.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, work is continuing on Highway 74 in Garner Valley. That estimated completion date is the end of August.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
