Gilroy Hot Springs Road closed at Coyote Reservoir due to flooding
By Staff Report
Recent storms have significantly impacted county-maintained roads, causing more closures due to mudslides, flooding, and downed trees. The County of Santa Clara’s Road Maintenance crews are working to reopen impacted roads. Emergency road closure information is available at www.sccgov.org/roadclosures.
Road closures from mudslides, flooding, and downed trees have a dramatic impact on our residents’ ability to get to work or drive their kids to school. Providing a website to check for these emergency closures enables our residents to stay informed of the status of these roads. Recent storms have caused damage to eight County maintained roads.
County Road Maintenance crews work seven days a week during severe weather events to keep our roadways safe and passable. We ask that drivers be alert for road closure signs and for equipment and crews, especially for operations on narrow mountain roadways.
