This summer, significant roadwork is scheduled in the Tahoe Basin, impacting travel during its busiest tourist season. Caltrans plans construction on both the north and south shores, especially on Highway 28, to improve infrastructure and repave roads. Beginning in May, road construction may cause delays of up to 30 minutes. The focus will be on Tahoe City, which requires a complete road dig-out to repair and rebuild, likely finishing just before the July 4th peak tourist influx. The area sees about 15 million visitors yearly, which could exacerbate delays.
Travelers to Tahoe should prepare for significant roadwork this summer, which will result in backups and delays during the busy season.
Expect road construction to begin in May, focusing on Highway 28 and affecting North Lake Tahoe with potential delays up to 30 minutes.
The work in Tahoe City involves a full dig-out of the road, requiring rebuilding down to the dirt for necessary repairs.
The Fourth of July weekend is expected to be particularly congested, with summer tourism lasting through Labor Day, bringing in 15 million visitors annually.
