South Alamo One-Way Southbound Traffic
Contractor (Sundt Construction) has converted South Alamo from Market Street to Cesar Chavez to one single southbound traffic lane, effective March 18, 2024 through the completion of the project. This traffic configuration is necessary to provide the contractor full access for the installation of utilities and associated roadway reconstruction work. Please see the map provided for available detour routes. We appreciate your patience as work continues.
Closure of NW Quadrant of Nueva & South Alamo Intersection
The NW Quadrant of Nueva & South Alamo Intersection continues to be closed to install chilled water and make a tie-in. Nueva is accessible to two-way traffic off Presa Street and will allow eastbound traffic to take a right turn onto South Alamo. No right turn onto Nueva will be permitted off of South Alamo. Please slowdown in this area while work is underway. We appreciate your patience. Please see the detour map provided.
South Alamo One-Way Southbound Traffic Map
Current and planned work:

- Storm drain installation planned on the east side of South Alamo between Nueva to Market, to be preceded by CPS Gas installation and followed by SAWS water main and sanitary sewer installation.
- CPS Electric installation work continues on the east side of South Alamo north of Nueva St.
- Drill shaft boring for traffic signal at the South Alamo & Market SE Quadrant. This area is being converted for permanent pedestrian and traffic signal improvements, which closes one small traffic lane.
