Working on the Coastside

City of HMB | State Route 92 Construction Update

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

State Route 92 developed a sinkhole in January 2023 related to the significant rain at that time, compounded by a failed drain/culvert. Caltrans crews were able to quickly fill the sinkhole and shift the roadway over to allow permanent repairs to be completed without impacting traffic.

Those final repairs are ongoing, and traffic remains fully open in both directions. The majority of current repair work is being completed from the slope on the side of the roadway and is not visible to motorists. This work method allows motorists and bicyclists to continue to use the roadway while repairs are completed.

Remaining work includes:

  • Installation of a new 36” diameter drain pipe
  • Ground and slope stabilization
  • Re-establishing lane configuration
  • Vegetation landscape work

Most of the work on the slope will be completed in late November and the remaining work by the end of the year. The truck climbing lane is being used to safely move material and equipment, and will remain closed for the duration of the project.
