Although this list represents a comprehensive overview of known projects coordinated by City staff and partner agencies, smaller projects and emergency repairs may occur at any time and may not be listed here.

Monterey Avenue Roadway and Intersection Improvements

The City of Palm Desert is preparing to begin roadway and intersection improvements along Monterey Avenue, from Gerald Ford Drive to the bridge at I-10. Construction is anticipated to begin August 3.

This project will rehabilitate the asphalt concrete street and improve safety, accessibility, and traffic operations for motorists, pedestrians, nearby businesses, and visitors traveling through the area.

Planned improvements include sidewalk and curb repairs, traffic signal infrastructure upgrades, crosswalk and accessibility improvements, and enhancements to overall traffic flow and intersection safety.

During construction, residents, businesses, customers, and motorists may experience temporary traffic delays, lane adjustments, noise, and intermittent access modifications within the work area. The City will make every effort to minimize disruptions and maintain access to surrounding businesses throughout the project.

Additional information regarding construction schedules, traffic impacts, and project phasing will be shared on this page as it becomes available.

The City appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation as we work to enhance safety and accessibility along this important corridor.
