FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Caltrans To Begin Plumas 70 Permanent Restoration Project in Plumas
County
Plumas County — Caltrans will begin the Plumas 70 Permanent Restoration project on
July 11th, which will provide for the permanent restoration of roadway slope scour in
response to the 2017 qualifying storm event that resulted in storm damage along the
Route 70 Feather River corridor. A combination of grouted Rock Slope Protection (RSP)
clusters at seven locations and a soldier pile "Tie-Back Retaining Wall" at one location
will be installed. In addition, eight culverts will be replaced along the route as the
roadway embankment undergoes stabilization.
Motorists can normally expect 7 minute daytime delays as work begins in July, but can
expect occasional 35 minute delays. The soldier pile wall location near Rich Bar will be
reduced to one lane for a half mile length with a temporary traffic signal. Work on this
project will happen during daytime hours, Monday through Saturday, from the Plumas
County line to the Greenville Wye.
The $20 million project includes 175 working days. The entire project is expected to be
completed in 2024.

Twitter. Project information can also be found on the District 2 webpage. The public
can also call (530) 225-3426 during working hours or send an email to
D2PIO@dot.ca.gov. Updated highway conditions for California can be found on
QuickMap and on One-Stop-Shop for the Western U.S.
