This page highlights some of the major construction projects happening in Carlsbad. It does not include projects from non-city utilities and private development. See the look ahead map.

Because construction work is very dynamic, schedules can change for a wide variety of reasons, such as weather, availability of supplies and other factors.  If we expect a project to have a significant impact, we typically notify those in the immediate vicinity 72 hours in advance.

For projects along major roadways, you can look for digital message boards for notices about upcoming work that could cause delays or detours. 

Although construction can cause temporary inconveniences, the good news is that we’re maintaining and improving our infrastructure year-round, and by keeping things up to date, we save money in the long run by avoiding emergency repairs. Regular maintenance also helps ensure you don’t experience a last-minute water shut off or road closure.

    Tyler Street map 

    Project background 

    The city is working on making streets inviting for everyone, whether walking, biking or driving. Tyler Street, in the city’s historic Village and Barrio community, is one of the locations where the city is planning improvements to accommodate all forms of travel and increase connectivity to trails. 

    Based on previous input, the city is studying three options for Tyler Street:

    Option A – 

    • Maintain two-way traffic 
    • Remove curbs and add decorative paving to create a “shared space” for cars and bikes
    • Add decorative paving or colored concrete for pedestrians on both sides
    • Maintain parallel parking

    Option B – 

    • Reduce vehicle traffic to one-way northbound
    • Add bike lanes in each direction
    • Maintain parallel parking 

    Option C – 

    • Maintain two-way traffic
    • Add sidewalks on both sides of the street
    • Move parallel parking from the east side to the west side of Tyler Street

    We’d like to get your input to make sure that changes to Tyler Street meet the needs and priorities of people of all ages and abilities who live, walk, bike or drive in the area.
