FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



REMOVAL CONSTRUCTION TO REMOVE LEANING OR DEAD TREES ALONG HWY 13 NORTHBOUND ROADWAY BEGINS NEXT MONDAY

ALAMEDA COUNTY To insure safety of freeway commuters, Caltrans will conduct tree removal construction at 9 a.m., Monday, March 18, 2013 to remove select trees along northbound State Route (SR) -13.

No lane closures are scheduled at this time.

The removal construction is crucial to maintain roadway operations. All of the trees identified for removal are leaning, dead and/or diseased. Removal will occur at various points along the northbound stretch of SR-13 between Redwood Road and the Moraga Avenue onramp.

Portable Changeable Message Signs (PCMS) may be used along the route to notify motorists of all removal construction activities. Motorists are reminded to stay away from removal construction sites and crews during operations, which may involve large cranes and trucks, and grinding equipment.

Motorists are strongly urged to drive cautiously through this construction zone and, in the event of inclement weather, leave a safe traveling distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you. Caltrans appreciates your patience as we work to improve the highways. Please remember to Slow for the Cone Zone.
