Jay Heying, foreman for Sierra Nevada Construction, says he expects the Plumas Street road rehabilitation, which has rerouted traffic in the Old Southwest neighborhood since August, will be completed by the end of next week. Here, Heying, Flavio Garcia and Julio Flores are raising utilities, which means bringing their tops back to grade with the roadtop. The four stages of road rehab, said Heying, are lowering, milling, paving and raising.
