What a fun day in Lakeport! Our Caltrans District 1 team had the pleasure of joining the Lakeport Unified School District’s 4th Annual “Trucks on the Track” event at Terrace Middle School. Students and staff got a close-up look at our heavy equipment and large trucks, and we had a great time sharing the important role these vehicles play in keeping California moving safely. A big thank-you to Lakeport Unified School District for the warm welcome. We are already looking forward to next year! #Caltrans #TrucksOnTheTrack #Community #Lakeport

🚧Nature Hits SR 38 Again Last week, SR 38 was fully closed after heavy flooding and mudslides swept through the mountain corridor. The sudden debris flows trapped motorists between multiple slide areas and a slip out. Our Caltrans District 8 crews responded immediately, working through tough conditions to free stranded travelers and secure the roadway. Their quick action helped keep people safe during a fast-changing emergency. Mountain terrain can shift in an instant, especially near recent burn scars. Please stay alert and prepared when traveling through these areas. A huge thank you to our crews for their dedication and swift response in protecting the traveling public.👏 For updates & road conditions visit: https://lnkd.in/gWza8G2m #Caltrans #District8 #SafetyFirst #StormResponse
