The City of Tehachapi has announced a significant road rehabilitation project on Valley Boulevard, set to begin next week. This project will affect traffic for commuters, particularly those living in Bear Valley, Stallion Springs, and Golden Hills.

The work will take place on Valley Boulevard between Tucker Road and Beach Street, involving grinding, crack filling, and a complete resurfacing of the road. To manage traffic during construction, flaggers will be present, and full closures of this section of the road are expected throughout the project.

Residents and drivers are encouraged to stay informed by following the city's social media channels for updates on specific closure dates and times. In light of the anticipated disruptions, the city advises drivers to avoid the area when possible and consider alternative routes, especially during peak traffic times such as school drop-off hours. Suggested detours include Highline to Denison or Tehachapi Boulevard to Denison.

The city appreciates the community's patience as these essential improvements are made to enhance the thoroughfare.
