Pismo Beach will repair a third of its streets over next 2 years. Here’s what to expect

Road work

Pismo Beach will host a groundbreaking ceremony on Friday to signify the start of the city’s massive paving project.

The project is intended to repair 33% of streets with fixes including new curb ramps and sidewalk additions, with an emphasis on residential neighborhoods, according to a city news release.

Construction is planned for sections of Mattie Way, Ocean Boulevard, Price Street and the James Way neighborhoods, among others.

Repairs are expected to take approximately two years.

On April 19, the Pismo Beach gave CalPortland Construction a $10 million contract to complete the project, according to the release.

Residents and business owners can stay up to date on the city’s repair construction at pismobeach.org/963/Paving-Project.

A groundbreaking ceremony was originally slated for Thursday, but it rescheduled for next week due to a time conflict with a Pismo Beach City Council meeting.
