BACKGROUND
Following the Glass Fire in 2020, Wragg Canyon Road has significantly deteriorated, particularly in areas where heavy equipment used for fire containment efforts and subsequent reconstruction activities have reduced sections to gravel. The road serves as a critical route to and from Pleasure Cove Launch Ramp, experiencing high traffic volumes necessitating more than regular pothole patching for maintenance. To address these challenges effectively, our staff is requesting a budget amendment from the PG&E Settlement Designation specifically allocated for overlay repairs.

Total Miles: 2.39 miles.
