“The Public Works Department recently was able to take advantage of a relatively inexpensive subsurface repair method to fix the dip on Cathedral Oaks Road, said Goleta Public Works director Charlie Ebeling. We are excited to take advantage of the success and cost savings of that project to be able to follow it up with repairs to the sidewalk and roadway surface in this area. Staff worked very quickly and efficiently to get a contractor ready to complete the surface improvements shortly after the success of the dip repair project.”
City staff will be working with the contractor to minimize impacts to the public; however, the project will require closure of half of the roadway at a time to complete the pavement work. Traffic control will be in place, and flaggers will be directing two-way traffic for the one open lane.

The work consists of injecting material treatment beneath the roadway to repair the dip and bring the roadway elevations back to level grade.
The project does not include roadway asphalt surface repairs at this time. The surface repairs will be included in a future paving project after confirmation that roadway settling has been resolved.
The city of Goleta awarded the project to Uretek USA Inc. MNS Engineers, Inc. will be providing construction oversight for the city.
