LAKEPORT, Calif. — Over the next few months Lakeport residents and visitors will see new paving improvements along South Main Street.

The city of Lakeport reported that the South Main Street paving project is now in full swing.

It follows the completion in September of the South Main Street Sidewalk Project, which focused on filling in missing sidewalk gaps and included significant Americans with Disabilities Act upgrades to enhance pedestrian accessibility along the corridor.

The paving project will cover the stretch from First Street to Lakeport Boulevard. It will resurface the roadway and introduce several pedestrian enhancements, including the installation of rectangular rapid flashing beacons, improved pavement markings and new striping.

The city said crews are actively working to prepare the roadway for repaving, focusing on South Main Street from Lakeport Boulevard to First Street.

Crews are conducting essential preparation, including adjusting utilities, smoothing the road surface and completing preliminary groundwork to ensure the highest paving quality, the city reported.

To meet specific temperature requirements, a leveling layer will be applied during daytime hours. The city said full paving work will follow.

The city anticipates completing the entire project by the end of the year.

The paving project aims to enhance road quality, improve safety and support Lakeport’s infrastructure, officials said.

The city thanked residents and businesses for their patience and support throughout the project.
