The City of Fountain Valley and the City of Huntington Beach are working together on the Rehabilitation and Resurfacing of Newland Street from Talbert Avenue to Ellis Avenue. The collaboration was required since Newland Street is a boundary (City limits) street for the City of Fountain Valley and the City of Huntington Beach. The project is necessary to maintain a smooth riding surface after years of weathering and continual use.Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin Tuesday, February 16, 2021, and is expected to be completed by the end of April 2021, subject to weather delays and unforeseen conditions. Work will not be scheduled on weekends or holidays. Several traffic lanes may be closed at any given time; however, there will be at least one lane open to traffic at all times.While the project has been planned to minimize impacts to the traveling public, some construction impacts and inconveniences cannot be avoided. As with any major construction project, expect long traffic delays and temporary lane closures. Motorists are highly encouraged to use alternate routes during peak travel time. The City asks for the public’s cooperation and consideration while construction is underway. Please drive carefully through the construction zones.Should you have any questions and/or concerns, please contact the Public Works Department at 714-593-4433.
