Redwood Shores Levee Cleanup 2019
At the end of each August, your Redwood Shores Community Association has sponsored our Annual Levee Cleanup. To benefit the environment, the community bonds together to help beautify the nearly seven miles (yes, 7 miles!) of levee surrounding the Shores. And we need all the help we can get to cover those seven miles.
Date: Saturday, August 24
Time: 8:00 am until noon (lunch at 11:30)
Place: Mariner Park, Redwood Shores, CA 94065
(click here for a MAP)
Starters: Coffee, juice and bagels served at 8:00 am
Lunch: Meals for all hands at 11:30am
Crews: Qualifies as 4-hours of Community Service
The Shores Levee Cleanup is a fun community event. Residents and admirers of our beautiful Shores are all invited to join us in this very worthy annual event to help keep this neighborhood and wetland area clean. Volunteers will be assembled into teams and assigned cleanup areas. Kids and parents, adults and seniors are all welcome and encouraged to get involved. Family work groups handle their areas at their own pace; all help to keep these bountiful nature trails debris-free.
This is a great opportunity for residents (and their friends) to enjoy a beautiful summer morning while experiencing a variety of birds and other wildlife. Volunteer and enjoy the splendor of our seven miles of shoreline, including incredible views of the bay.
We hope you will join us again this year for this worthy cause and opportunity to give back to your community. Please wear good walking shoes and consider bringing gloves; all pickup tools and trash bags will be provided. Take pride in enhancing this important Redwood City resource, and join us Saturday, August 25, starting at 8am.
Recology Systems Inc. provides the trash collection containers, and their assistance is gratefully acknowledged. Each year large amounts of trash are picked from the Redwood Shores Levee environment by our volunteers and removed by Recology Systems free of charge. Every piece of trash that is eliminated is important!

NOTICE OF PROJECT
Dear Resident, Business Owner, and/or Property Owner:
The City of Redwood City will begin a roadway resurfacing project in your area soon. The project is part of the City’s ongoing roadway management program. Roadways will be resurfaced with a material known as “microsurfacing”. Microsurfacing is a cost-effective preventative maintenance measure that provides a durable, smooth, and safe roadway surface.
The project consists of the following activities, to be done by two main contractors:
- American Asphalt:
• Repair damaged pavement on Marine Parkway
• Remove traffic striping, pavement legends & raised pavement markers
• Apply a thin layer of microsurfacing seal
• Install temporary markings - Chrisp Company:
• Install permanent traffic striping, pavement legends & raised pavement markers
Construction is expected to start in July and end in September.
The contractor will distribute notices with more detailed information about 1-2 weeks before the microsurfacing activity starts. Striping will follow 1-2 weeks after the microsurfacing application.
Residents and motorists in the project area may experience some delays and inconveniences during construction including periodic lane closures, street closures, detours, temporary parking displacement, dust, and loose gravel. “No Parking” signs will be posted at least 48 hours in advance. Please be particularly cautious during construction and if possible, use alternate routes to avoid delays.
General work hours will be between 7:30 am and 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday. For some locations, work hours will be more limited to reduce the impact on commute traffic. Some night and weekend work may be approved to reduce traffic impacts. Streets will normally be reopened to traffic by 5 pm. However, they may be closed later if needed to allow the new surface to fully cure. Appropriate construction signage will be posted as needed. Access to properties will be maintained at all times for residents, patrons, owners, and emergency services (police, fire, ambulance, etc.).
Please see the map/streets list for the specific street sections that will be surfaced as part of this project. For more information about this project, visit Redwood City’s website at https://www.redwoodcity.org/city-hall/current-projects/infrastructure-projects?id=129 .
For questions, please contact:
• Project inspector – Suhail Ansari at (650) 400-9854
• Project manager – Sayed Zahori at (650) 780-7321
