Avenue 56 Farm to Market Route Improvements

The Avenue 56 Farm to Market Route Improvements project, managed by Tulare County in California, involves the enhancement of approximately 7.2 miles of roadway between State Route 43 and State Route 99. The scope of work includes isolated pavement repairs, the application of a full-width pavement overlay, and the reconstruction of the intersection at Avenue 56 and North Front Street. Additionally, all newly surfaced areas will receive new traffic stripes and pavement markings to improve regional transportation infrastructure and public safety. This project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237310 and is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Class 1 for Existing Facilities, as the work consists of maintenance and resurfacing without expanding roadway capacity. Construction is scheduled to commence in the Spring of 2027 and is expected to reach completion by the Summer of 2027. Key points of contact for the project include Gary Mills, Jessica Wills, and Omar Padilla.
