January 25, 2022 - STOCKTON — The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will perform an emergency Director’s Order to remove potentially hazardous trees damaged by the recent winter storm that brought exceptionally high snow amounts and wind gusts to the Sierra Nevada.

Crews will work along State Route 140 in Mariposa County from Hummingbird Lane to State Route 49 North from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. beginning Tuesday, January 25, through Thursday, January 27, and from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Friday, January 28, 2022.
