Macadamia Access Road Repairs Project

The Macadamia Access Road Repairs Project, managed by the Town of Hillsborough Public Works Department, involves the repair and reinforcement of nine unpaved road segments used for sewer maintenance access. These roads suffered significant landslide damage during storm events in 2022 and 2023. The project is designed to protect existing sewer infrastructure and ensure the continued delivery of sanitary sewer services to the public. The scope of work includes a combination of embankment repairs and retaining wall installations, specifically targeting three segments over 1,200 feet on the northwest access road and five segments over 2,500 feet on the southeast access road. Work will be executed in two phases, starting with the southern access road followed by the northern access road. The project is located at the intersection of Skyfarm Drive and Macadamia Drive in Hillsborough, California. Due to the presence of wetlands and biologically sensitive habitats, the Town is responsible for consulting with regulatory agencies and obtaining all necessary state and federal environmental permits. The project qualifies for a statutory exemption under California Public Resources Code Section 21080.25(b)(3) as emergency repairs in a disaster-stricken area. Natalie Gribben, the Deputy Director of Public Works, serves as the primary point of contact. The project is classified under NAICS code 237990.
