Laytonville Thin Overlay

The project titled Laytonville Thin Overlay involves applying a 0.08-foot Rubberized Bonded Wearing Course - Gap Graded overlay to a segment of highway within California’s State right of way as a preventative maintenance measure. This work aims to preserve the existing pavement structure and improve ride quality for the traveling public. In addition to the overlay, the scope includes removing and replacing rumble strips, installing shoulder backing on existing backing, and reinstalling pavement delineation. All construction activities will be confined to paved surfaces and existing non-vegetated turnouts to minimize environmental impact, with no significant soil disturbance expected. Temporary construction signage and Portable Changeable Message Signs will be installed between PM 66.0 and 70.1 in the Laytonville area. The project is managed by Caltrans, District 1 - Eureka, and is publicly forecasted with a posted date of July 6, 2026.
