ROSEVILLE, Calif. — Construction is underway to extend Roseville Parkway.
The Roseville Parkway Extension Project will span from Washington Boulevard to Foothills Boulevard, connecting northwest Roseville to east Roseville and Granite Bay.
Construction is anticipated to be on weekdays between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Drivers should watch out for possible shoulder, lane and road closures. Road closures are expected on Industrial Boulevard in 2024, according to the city.
It will connect western parts of Roseville to places such as the Galleria Mall, The Fountains and connections to Highway 65.
Roseville City Council unanimously voted in September to move forward with the project, awarding the contract and approving a budget adjustment as well as approving a services agreement and a purchase order for the project.
"This is great news. In 2019 we had a decision between Blue Oaks and here, so it's great to see this finally come to fruition," Mayor Bruce Houdesheldt said during the September meeting.
There will be two lanes in either direction. A bridge will be built over Industrial Avenue and the Union Pacific Railroad for the extension. Bike lanes are also being built along the extension as well as a multi-use path.
The approximately $27 million construction project will be fully funded by developer-paid traffic mitigation fees. The extension project is expected to be complete by Spring 2025.
