The repaving and reconstruction of Monroe Street between McLoughlin Boulevard and a block east of Highway 224, as called for by the Street Surface Maintenance Program, is underway and will continue through mid-September, temporarily affecting access in the construction area.

In 2006 City Council enacted the Street Surface Maintenance Program (SSMP) to collect funding to help keep the City’s major arterials in decent condition. This being one of the City’s arterials, the Monroe Street Project was selected as an SSMP project.
