Construction Updates for September 2016

September 2016

September 22, 2016

Thank you for your interest in the Tangerine Road improvements. Beginning Sunday night, September 25th from 8 pm to 5 am through early October, crews from Tangerine Corridor Constructors will begin working on utility crossings on Tangerine Road from Camino de Manana to Thornydale Road. The traveling public can anticipate the following impacts:

  • There will be intermittent lane restrictions on Tangerine Road between Camino de Manana and Thornydale Road. Traffic will be guided through the impacted work area one side at a time. Flaggers will be on site to direct traffic through the work area.
  • The speed limit will be reduced 25 mph.
  • Expect delays.

Work is anticipated to continue for the next few weeks; however, no work will occur on the weekends. Daytime activities will continue to occur in concurrence with the night work.

Please ensure that dogs, horses and other animals are not in the construction zone - for the safety of all.


Traffic has been shifted on Tangerine Road between Twin Peaks/Dove Mountain and Camino de Oeste to help facilitate the construction of the new alignment of Tangerine Road.

For your safety, please be aware of the following traffic changes:

  • The speed limit is 25 mph on Tangerine Road just west of Twin Peaks/Dove Mountain to Camino de Oeste.
  • One lane of travel is being maintained in each direction. There is temporary striping that indicates travel lanes on Tangerine Road.
  • Temporary concrete barriers have been placed between the construction area and the travel lanes.
  • At the intersection of Twin Peaks/ Dove Mountain and Tangerine Road, northbound and southbound Twin Peaks/Dove Mountain has been reduced to 1 lane in each direction. A dedicated left turn lane onto Tangerine Road is provided in each direction.

The above traffic control is anticipated to be in place for the next several months. Please ensure that dogs, horses and other animals are not in the construction zone – for the safety of all!
