North Shingle Road and Durock Road Realignment Meeting - March 19

Dear Shingle Springs residents and rural lifestyle supporters,

The El Dorado County Department of Transportation (DOT) and Caltrans are moving forward with realigning North Shingle Road and Durock Road as part of the US 50 / Ponderosa Road interchange project. This will be a major road construction project. A public meeting has been scheduled by DOT for Wednesday, March 19, 2025 from 6:00pm to 7:30pm at 3974 Durock Road, Suite 205 (El Dorado County Probation Meeting Room) in Shingle Springs. Please plan to attend this important meeting to learn about the project and provide your input!

The road realignments are intended to ease the congested traffic backups that we are all too familiar with.
