Graham Hill Road will be closed between Roaring Camp Road and Lockewood Lane Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 7 & 8 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., the San Lorenzo Valley Water District announced.
The closure is for the final paving for Graham Hill Road. These two days will entail full closure of both lanes, northbound and southbound. This is the final paving of the roadway prior to the rainy season. Paving is a key phase of the intertie project, a joint effort between San Lorenzo Valley Water District, Scotts Valley Water District and the Mount Hermon Association. When completed, the intertie project will allow the districts to share water resources in emergencies such as fires and natural disasters.
A detour will reroute motorists onto Lockewood Lane and Mt Hermon Road. Motorists traveling between San Lorenzo Valley and Santa Cruz also can take Highway 9, which has reopened after several months of road construction. Access to Santa Cruz County Juvenile Hall, Ponderosa Lodge, Roaring Camp Railroads, Redtree Industrial Park, San Lorenzo Lumber, Summit Road and Grand View Avenue will be provided during the road closure.
