"Caltrans spokesperson Matt O'Donnell stated, 'This route really needs this pavement rehab, it's been needed for a while, so we're going to tackle is within ten days rather than 40, which was the original plan.'"
"O'Donnell added, 'It's not a good idea; we want them to be safe and our crews to be safe,' referring to drivers who were seen cutting through cones."
"Thuy Linh Do, owner of Tokyo Cream, mentioned, 'I think we're just going to go with it. And I think people around here, the community, they will find a way to get here to support our business and my neighbors.'"
The repaving project on 19th Avenue in San Francisco concluded earlier than planned, reopening the roadway for the morning commute. The northbound lanes were closed for work over the weekend, with one lane remaining open for local traffic. Caltrans emphasized the need for pavement rehabilitation, initially scheduled for 40 days but completed in ten. While the project caused significant traffic disruptions, local businesses expressed readiness to adapt to the changes, anticipating further closures for additional work.
