Full Notification

I do not always get notice of all road closures in the community, but when I do, I try to share the information with you.

The following information provided in a press release sent out by Santa Barbara County Publc Works (Please note that MFD is not involved in the road work, or the road closure):

Crane Tree Service will be performing safety tree trimming and tree removal on Ortega Hill on December 15, 16 and 19th for the
County of Santa Barbara. The work will be conducted between the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

During this period of time the road will be closed to all traffic; including bicyclists and pedestrians. Emergency vehicles will have access at all times.

Motorists will be directed to detours via the Sheffield Drive or Evans Avenue exits on highway 101. Please watch for detour signs and allow extra time to reach your destination.

Inclement weather could prompt County Officials to reschedule this work and message boards will show the new schedule. The Public Works Department thanks you for your patience and cooperation.
