Caltrans cews are busy with a major sidewalk repair project  along Main Street (Highway 152) in Watsonville, where a chunk of land collapsed in at Struve Slough. 

The rupture, between Clifford Avenue and Watsonville Square where Nob Hill is located, took out a length of sidewalk, curb and gutter on the north side of Main Street, forcing officials to close the sidewalk to pedestrians.

Celeste Morales of Caltrans—who is overseeing the job—said two-way traffic will remain open, but motorists can expect minor delays. The sidewalk is now closed to pedestrians and bicyclists between Clifford Avenue and Watsonville Square.

The $5.09 million project by Graniterock includes excavation, placement of lightweight fill, paving, new sidewalks, curbs, gutters and drainage improvements.
