"Detours Rule!" said nobody ever

Roundabout Construction Detours

Beginning in August, the intersection at Golden Hill and Union will be closed and detours will be in place while we work on the roundabout that will replace the current angled 4-way stop. Construction will take a year, detours and traffic impacts will be unavoidable. We apologize in advance for the impacts. By closing the intersection we cut construction time down from 2-3 years to 12-18 months and saved around $1 million. More information
