Project Overview

San Francisco Public Works is pleased to announce the VL 70 Pavement Renovation Project, a citywide effort to improve the safety, accessibility, and overall condition of neighborhood streets. Through a contract with Ronan Construction Inc., Public Works will deliver coordinated pavement improvements while working to minimize disruptions to residents, businesses, and visitors.

By consolidating construction activities whenever possible, this project aims to reduce repeated impacts to the public while efficiently completing necessary infrastructure upgrades.

Scope of Work

The VL 70 Pavement Renovation Project includes a range of street and sidewalk improvements designed to enhance accessibility and extend the lifespan of San Francisco’s roadway network. Planned work may include:

• Installation and upgrade of curb ramps to meet accessibility standards
• Street base repairs where underlying pavement has deteriorated
• Full roadway repaving to improve driving, biking, and walking conditions

Construction activities and specific work elements will vary by location depending on existing conditions.

Construction Schedule

Construction is anticipated to begin in March 2026 and is expected to take approximately nine months to complete.

Typical construction hours are 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Weekend work is permitted under the contract but is not currently scheduled. Work hours may vary by location, and additional details will be shared closer to the start of construction.

Traffic, Parking, and Access Impacts

During construction, temporary traffic delays may occur due to lane closures and work at intersections. San Francisco Public Works and the construction team will make every effort to maintain safe and efficient traffic flow throughout the project.

Key information for residents and travelers

• Streets will be posted at least 72 hours in advance of construction with “No Parking / Tow Away” signage.
• Vehicles parked in posted areas during work hours may be towed at the owner’s expense.
• Driveway access will be maintained at all times, though brief delays may occur while crews create a safe path for vehicles.
• Sidewalk access will remain open and accessible throughout construction.
• Travelers are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra time when traveling through active work zones.

Please follow posted signs and instructions from construction personnel for your safety and the safety of others.

Staying Informed

San Francisco Public Works is committed to keeping the community informed throughout the life of the project. Additional details, including construction phasing, traffic advisories, and community updates, will be shared closer to the start of work and throughout construction.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work to improve San Francisco’s streets and public spaces for everyone.
