Yorba Linda’s Zone 7B Pavement Project Sets Late-Summer Street Work
Yorba Linda’s Annual Pavement Preservation Project, Zone 7B, is planned for late summer 2026 and will cover eastern residential streets along with selected portions of Yorba Linda Boulevard and Esperanza Road.
The City Council approved the project in June, but the city has not published a fixed completion date or a street-by-street daily schedule. Residents should watch for advance notices and follow temporary no-parking signs and other posted instructions as work is sequenced.
Which Yorba Linda streets are included
The city’s Zone 7B project materials identify residential streets surrounding the Via Lomas de Yorba loop and the southern end of Camino de Bryant. The Stonehaven and Via del Agua loop areas are scheduled for treatment after the Cielo development concludes.
The scope also includes portions of Yorba Linda Boulevard between Imperial Highway and Lakeview Avenue, and between Yorba Ranch Road and New River Road. Esperanza Road is included from Lindsey Street to the city limits. The city’s Zone 7B map identifies the streets and segments included in the project.
What the city approved
At its June 16, 2026, meeting, the Yorba Linda City Council approved a $4,151,000 construction agreement with Onyx Paving Company, Inc. for the APPP Zone 7B project.
The council approved a separate 15% construction contingency of $622,650. It also approved a professional-services agreement with LAE Associates, Inc. for construction management and inspection services totaling $178,960, plus a separate $26,844 contingency.
A separate agreement with GMU Engineers & Geologists for materials-testing services totals $51,297, with a separate $7,695 contingency. The council also authorized a $200,000 budget amendment increasing project revenues and expenditures.
Those approvals are separate from the $4,151,000 construction agreement and should not be presented as one single construction contract.
Work hours, parking and lane restrictions
The city lists general construction hours as Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. General lane-closure hours are listed as 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Those hours do not establish a fixed schedule for every affected street; daily restrictions may vary by work phase and official notice.
If a lane closure will affect a resident’s vehicle access, the city advises parking on a nearby open street before 7:30 a.m. Residents must follow temporary “No Parking” signs on the work street and adjacent streets. The city also warns residents not to leave vehicles parked on the street if they will be away from home for an extended period.
Vehicles and trash cans should be removed from the roadway the night before roadway work. The city says the waste hauler has been notified, but residents remain responsible for following posted parking and access instructions.
Planning for medical and essential access
Residents who need medical or other essential-access accommodations should contact the city in advance at 714-961-5460. The city identifies transportation to medical appointments, medical equipment such as oxygen tanks or mobility aids, and special housing needs such as wheelchair accessibility as examples.
Residents should also notify the city if a moving company or other commercial-type vehicle is scheduled to come to the property within two weeks of roadway work on the street. That advance notice can help city staff consider arrangements before resurfacing begins.
What to do after paving
Residents should stay off fresh asphalt until barricades are removed. That includes keeping cars, bicycles, pedestrians and pets from using or touching treated surfaces.
The city’s resident brochure also advises avoiding abrupt acceleration or deceleration and avoiding sharp steering while a vehicle is stationary for the first three months after construction, because those actions can damage the road surface. Residents should avoid car washing and operating sprinklers within 48 hours of roadway improvements.
Posted signs and city project notices will control when vehicles must move, when access may be limited and when each affected street is scheduled for work. Residents with medical needs, moving appointments, deliveries or other essential access concerns should contact Yorba Linda Public Works before work reaches their street.
