Barring rain or other unforeseen interruptions the work should be finished later in the week. Think a street needs resurfacing in your neighborhood? Leave a comment.
A section of Begier Avenue was scraped down to the dirt level last week in preparation for repaving a long block from Bancroft Avenue to Chetland Road.
Big earthmoving trucks slowed traffic on Bancroft Avenue and heavy equipment chased the vehincles off Begier Avenue while the work was underway.
City of San Leandro engineering inspector Jerry Maughan said the project should be finished by the end of this week.
