Traffic traveling on San Miguel Drive will be detoured using Walnut Boulevard. A partial portion of Shady Glen Road between San Miguel Drive and Oakdene Court will be closed to through traffic as well, except for emergency access. Traffic will be detoured using El Camino Corto.

The purpose of this road closure is for EBMUD to replace approximately 1,965’ of 6” & 8” IPVC water main on portions of Shady Glen Road, Oakdene Court, Adeline Drive, Norris Road and San Miguel Drive in Walnut Creek. Work will begin on Thursday, April 1, 2021 through Tuesday, June 1, 2021, barring unforeseen circumstances. Work will occur between 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, weather permitting.
