As roadway widening work wraps up on El Camino Real between Sunny Creek Road and Jackspar Drive over the next few months, construction will begin to widen northbound El Camino Real between Poinsettia Lane and Camino Vida Roble. This widening effort is part of a series of improvements along El Camino Real designed to support traffic flow and enhance safety for everyone driving, biking or walking on this busy roadway.

Construction on this section of roadway widening is expected to start in early spring and continue through early 2027, with work occurring Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., weather and other factors permitting. For protection, temporary concrete barriers will be installed to separate traffic from active work areas. These barriers will be removed once construction is complete. While the barriers are in place, northbound and southbound lanes may be temporarily reduced to facilitate other improvements. Northbound lanes could be temporarily reduced to a single lane at times. Otherwise, the existing two northbound vehicle lanes will remain open.

• There will be temporary closures of the bike lane through the construction area. Please watch for cyclists and share the road.
• The speed limit will be reduced to 45 mph during construction within the work zone.
• Traffic delays are possible. Drivers are encouraged to allow extra travel time.
• Noise and dust typical of roadway construction are possible. Crews will work as efficiently as possible to minimize inconvenience.
