Road work along Highway 50 from Cave Rock to Zephyr Cove continues this week as part of the Tahoe Stateline to Spooner Summit Repaving Project.

The first season of the construction project continues through October 2025. This week, work continues to raise manhole utility valve cover ups from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. This week also brings permanent striping and pavement marking — crosswalks, stop bars, turn arrows — from Stateline to Round Hill Pines at night, where paving has been completed.

Guardrail and barrier rail work continues around the clock from Sundays 8 p.m. until noon on Fridays through Oct. 15 with installing guardrail, barrier rail, curb and gutter and ITS conduit north of Zephyr Cove to Cave Rock.

Approximate times for guardrail work is from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., barrier rail 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. and ITS 9 p.m. to 4 p.m.

All Work Zones
No lane restrictions are expected on weekends. A minimum of one lane in each direction will stay open at all times. Drivers can anticipate moderate travel delays through the work zone. Speeds will be reduced to 35 mph through work zones.

While access to businesses and residences will be continuously maintained in most areas, certain side streets and driveways will temporarily be impacted as roadway excavation takes place in the immediate area. Steel plates and earthwork will then be used after excavation to reestablish side street access.
