Project is complete

In 2018, the Board of Directors approved $150,000 in fiscal years 2018/19, 2019/20, and 2020/21 to replace outdated guardrails. The district has a total of 60 guardrail locations, all original installations. In October 2018, the district hired Willdan to inventory all guardrail installations and do a condition assessment.

Of the 60 locations, only two met current standards. Twenty-two were found to have damage. Of those, 5 were deemed high priority. A priority list was established based on location, and a multi-year approach was provided.
