Caltrans is working closely with Alpine County and our partners to expedite the reopening of SR-89. A plan is underway to install temporary drainage facilities under SR-89 at Mulberry Creek and perform other essential work to safely reopen the roadway in both directions, perhaps in two weeks, if not sooner. This plan is weather permitting. Any interference with the construction site will cause delays so avoid the area.
Alpine County encourages residents and visitors to avoid to construction area to ensure no delays to the construction schedule for the bridge repair.
