Glenwood Drive
Emergency Storm Repairs for a Local Santa Cruz Mountain Road
When a huge sinkhole appeared in a main access road to Scotts Valley, the County of Santa Cruz hired our team to do an emergency repair of the road, provide shoring of the hillside and construct a reinforced concrete culvert to prevent future damage and flooding.
“Despite ongoing storm conditions, our team was devoted to quickly and safely repairing Glenwood Drive to reopen the road for local residents. Even during one of the rainiest seasons in recent history, we were dedicated to getting the job done safely and on time.”
— Melinda Berge, Senior Project Manager, Joseph J. Albanese, Inc.
