The second phase of the Paseo Santa Fe improvements from Oceanview Drive to Terrace Drive was substantially completed on May 8.

This week, the project moved into the third and final phase of street improvements and extends from Terrace Drive to Civic Center Drive. During construction, a roundabout will be installed at Pala Vista Drive. The duration of the project will be shorter than the previous phases, as the overhead utility lines were placed underground during Phase II. The construction is expected to be completed in winter 2020/21.
