New from the City of Indio:

INDIO, CA (January 10, 2019) – The City of Indio will be laying new asphalt on Jackson Street between Avenue 44 and Civic Center Drive from Tuesday, January 15 to Wednesday, January 16, 2019; and the West Jewel neighborhood from Monday, January 14 to Friday, January 18, 2019. During the project, traffic will be impacted on Jackson Street and surrounding neighborhoods between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Residents and other motorists are urged to use alternate routes due to localized delays. Access for emergency vehicles will be unaffected.

The streets affected in the West Jewel neighborhood, which is located south of Avenue 44 and east of Jackson Street, include the following: Dillon Avenue, Ruby Avenue, Emerald Avenue, Tourmaline Avenue, Palo Verde Street, and Serrano Lane. Parking will be limited during the period of work.

The road improvement work on Jackson Street and the West Jewel neighborhood involves grinding the top surface of the street and overlaying it with new asphalt. The project is funded by Measure X, which was a voter-approved 1% sales tax increase measure passed by Indio voters in 2016 for infrastructure improvements and public safety.
