As you have noticed, most likely with frustration, the road is being repaved and painted. CalTrans is working hard to complete the project with quality and timeliness. If you notice areas that are in need of help please contact CalTrans or speak with a workman who can direct you to the supervisor.
More importantly, I want to make sure that everyone is aware of the speed limit is through town. The speed limit is a firm 25 miles per hour. Please make sure that you follow this limit as this is a residential neighborhood with children and dogs and we have already had one child hit this year.
Please follow the law at crosswalks. When someone is waiting at a crosswalk, they have the right of way. Meaning- you need to stop and let them cross. As school is fast approaching it's new year, more and more children will be waiting and relying on your safety and allowing them to cross safely.
I will mention a time when a driver almost ran over an entire family by swerving around a car that was following the law and stopping at the crosswalk. Tragedy was barely avoided. If you are in a hurry, please understand that Knights Landing is a small town and any time you might save in your commute will only register in mere seconds off of your commute but could result in a ticket, a horrific injury and the almighty guilt that would come from hurting someone. Nothing is worth 2 seconds of time.
Hopefully the road work will be completed soon and we won't have to expect any further delays and thank you for staying safe!
