The Dune Palms Road Bridge Improvement Project
will construct an all-weather access bridge across the Coachella Valley Storm Water Channel in La Quinta (see map for project area). The new, 480-foot-long bridge will address flooding and excess debris on the existing roadway during storms.

Dune Palms Road is now open in both directions.

BRIDGE & PROJECT DETAILS

The newly constructed 480-foot-long bridge will be approximately 86 feet wide and feature:

  • 4 vehicle travel lanes, 2 in each direction
  • 2, 8-foot-wide bike/cart paths, 1 in each direction
  • 2, 6-foot-wide sidewalks, 1 in each direction
  • A 9-foot, 8-inch raised center median

The project also will complete bridge approach roadway improvements (including drainage) to accommodate the raised profile for the bridge, and it will tie into the CV LINK multi-use trail under the bridge and at two secondary connecter trails from Dune Palms Road.
