City marks completion of Measure S 2024–25 pavement project; outlines summer 2025 street work
Summary
City staff presented a notice of completion for the 2024–25 Measure S pavement rehabilitation and outlined a slate of summer 2025 street and alley projects funded by Measure S, RSTP and SP1 funds.
City staff told the Tehachapi City Council the 2024–25 Measure S pavement rehabilitation project is complete and asked the council to accept the notice of completion as an informational item.
Staff said the project repaved several streets and multiple downtown alleyways; the council viewed a short video of completed work that included downtown corridors, new pickleball and 5-a-side courts, repairs at the wastewater treatment plant and a water-tower repaint. Staff credited Measure S funds with enabling the scope of work.
Public Works and engineering staff outlined the pavement program for summer 2025. Planned work includes repaving sections of Denison (including the block in front of the event center), Denison between Tehachapi Boulevard and Georgia Street, major rebuilding of streets north of the railroad between the tracks and the airport (H, I, J streets and multiple north-side streets), Curry Street from C Street to Valley Boulevard, and remaining downtown alleys. The city also expects to use RSTP (Regional Surface Transportation Program) funds to grind and replace sections of Valley Boulevard and SP1 gas-tax funds for preventive maintenance such as slurry seals in the Alta development.
Staff said completing preventive maintenance can extend pavement life and that the program will reach every street and alley in the city over successive Measure S cycles. Council members suggested visible signage and digital outreach to highlight Measure S-funded projects to residents.
