Document Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) proposes an emergency Director’s Order project to trim and remove hazardous trees at two locations: along State Route (SR) 4, between post miles (PM) 36.0 and 50.0, in Calaveras County; and along SR-140, between PMs 15.0 and 22.0, in Mariposa County. Many trees and limbs have become a hazard to the roadway, due to recent snow, storm, and wind events. The scope of work includes traffic control, tree trimming, felling of uprooted and/or hazardous trees, minor slope and ditch stabilization, and the removal of debris, limbs, and stumps where necessary. All work will occur within Caltrans Right of Way. The purpose of this project is to trim and remove trees that are an immediate threat to the roadway. The project is needed to ensure the functionality of these highways and safety of the traveling public.
