SR-9 Cold Plane and Hot Mix Asphalt Project (EA 4X960)

The California Department of Transportation District 4 is initiating the SR-9 Cold Plane and Hot Mix Asphalt Project (EA 4X960) to repave State Route 9 in Santa Clara County. The project covers the area from post mile 6.90 to 10.87, spanning the cities of Saratoga, Monte Sereno, and Los Gatos. The scope of work involves cold planing the existing asphalt concrete pavement and applying 0.1-foot of Type A hot mix asphalt, along with the replacement of any damaged pavement striping and delineation. Additionally, four curb ramps at the intersection of Saratoga Avenue and Oak Street will be upgraded to meet current standards. Construction will utilize equipment such as grinding machines, striping machines, and excavators, and will require the implementation of one-way traffic control. This project has been granted a Categorical Exemption under PRC 21084 and 14 CCR 15301 Class 1, as detailed in the Notice of Exemption signed on September 24, 2026. The project is managed by Caltrans District 4 in the Bay Area/Oakland region, with Juliane Smith serving as the primary point of contact.
