Construction work along Lighthouse Avenue for the MST JAZZ Bus Rapid Transit System will begin on Monday, October 1. Intersections that will be affected will be Irving & Lighthouse and Hoffman & Lighthouse. (Work at Reeside & Lighthouse will be delayed until after October 21.) The construction is currently anticipated to take apx. 30 days.
The JAZZ rapid transit system includes installation of new bus shelters and road and sidewalk construction related to the bus stop areas. Initial work will include the removal of asphalt and some sidewalk concrete. Following removal work along the corridor, the next phase will reconstruct the bus stops, replace the sidewalk areas, and install the shelters. Traffic along sections of Lighthouse will be narrowed during the construction period.
In-bound traffic from Monterey can use either Foam or Lighthouse. Portions of Lighthouse will be narrowed to one lane heading west and may affect parking immediately in front of some businesses. Two lanes will remain open for traffic heading east toward Monterey but this will affect parking immediately in front of some businesses.
