PARADISE ROADWAY REHABILITATION
Fall 2025 Update
The Town of Paradise continues to make significant progress in rebuilding a stronger, safer and more resilient community. During the summer of 2025 and into 2028, the Town will rebuild numerous public roadways that sustained damage during the Camp Fire recovery effort.
Work on key Paradise roads will improve commuter safety and ride quality through pavement rehabilitation, signalized intersection modifications, and ADA-compliant curb ramp construction, as well as reconstruction of non-compliant ADA curb ramps. Construction on several roadways began in summer of 2025 and is expected to continue into 2028.

Roadway Paving Underway on Clark Road - August 19, 2025
Major Road Construction Underway in Paradise - July 7, 2025
PROJECT AREA
Several key roadways will be improved over the coming months, including:
Almond Street – between Foster and Pearson Roads
Bille Road – between Oliver and Clark Roads
Buschmann Road – between Foster and Clark Roads
Central Park Drive – Intersection Only
Clark Road – between just north of Wagstaff Road and just north of Pearson Road
Elliott Road – between Skyway and Clark Road
Foster Road – between Trailway and Almond Street
Pearson Road – between Skyway and Clark Road
Skyway – between Skymeadow Way and Bille Road
How were these roads selected for rehabilitation?
This project will focus on the repair of 8.3 miles of “on-system roads” that sustained heavy damage in the wake of the Camp Fire and debris removal efforts. On-system roads are federal-aid routes that are eligible to receive Federal Highway Administration Emergency Relief Program funds that have suffered serious damage as a direct result of a declared disaster. They also serve as either evacuation routes or primary east-west connections to evacuation routes, so the rehabilitation of these roadways is a priority for the Town of Paradise.
ABOUT CONSTRUCTION
Significant work will be completed on each of the impacted roads, depending on severity of damage. Work may include excavation, full depth recycling, asphalt concrete paving, removal and construction of concrete curbs, sidewalks and gutters, driveway improvements, improvements to draining facilities, new signage and striping, and signal modifications.
The following construction-related impacts are anticipated. Please drive with caution and follow signage and detours.
Lane and road closures, with clearly marked detours in place.
Construction-related noise, dust and heavy equipment.
Both day and night work, depending on location.
Some weekend work may be required.
Parcels closest to the roadways under construction will be notified prior to work.
PROJECT FUNDING
The Town of Paradise has been awarded more than $55 million in state and federal funding through the Federal Highway Administration’s Emergency Relief Program and the Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG DR) funds for these roadway improvements. CDBG DR funds are paid to the Town as a reimbursement for eligible projects once the work has been performed. The grant funding secured for this specific project is part of a much larger rebuilding effort in Paradise.
