April 2, 2018 - MARIPOSA COUNTY – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has closed eastbound and westbound State Route 132 (SR-132) for approximately half a mile from Granite Springs Road to Piney Creek Road for repair work after last week’s heavy rain.
 
The closure is expected to be long term, in order to repair the roadway after a wash out.
 
The roadway on this stretch of SR-132 was severely eroded due to the massive amount of water, and must be fully repaired and given a new foundation before re-opening. This effort is to ensure the safety and efficiency of the roadway for motorists.
 
Motorists can expect an additional 15 minutes of travel time due to the closure.
 
Caltrans will also perform one-way traffic control from Narcisco Way in Coulterville to Bonds Flat Road in La Grange for storm repair work. This work is scheduled beginning Tuesday, April 3, 2018, through Friday, April 6, 2018, from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Motorists should expect 5 minute delays.
 
Caltrans crews have cleared drains, installed sand bags where necessary and kept a constant watch over the roadways impacted by the storming throughout Mariposa, Merced, Stanislaus and Tuolumne counties. Changeable message signs (CMS) on neighboring state roadways have been activated to warn drivers of the SR-132 closure.
 
Work is scheduled to begin as listed, but is subject to change due to traffic incidents, weather, availability of equipment and/or materials and construction related issues.
