City of Menifee Set to Break Ground on Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek The City of Menifee is preparing to begin construction on the Bradley Road Bridge over the Salt Creek Wash, with work scheduled to start in Summer 2025. This transformative project will deliver a new 365-foot, state-of-the-art bridge engineered to meet modern structural, seismic, and hydraulic standards. The new bridge is designed to mitigate flooding during storms, ensure safe and reliable north-south connectivity along Bradley Road, and enhance emergency response times for first responders serving the Menifee community. In addition to improved safety and flood protection, the two-lane bridge will feature dedicated bike lanes and sidewalks in both directions, supporting a more accessible and multimodal transportation network. To facilitate construction, Bradley Road will be fully closed at the Salt Creek Wash between Rio Vista Drive and Potomac Drive for approximately one year beginning in Summer 2025. This closure is essential to ensure worker safety in this environmentally sensitive area and to accommodate the limited space available. See map for alternate routes. Due to tight commercial and residential constraints, and strict environmental protections for the Salt Creek Wash, a temporary bypass road is not feasible. Constructing the bridge one lane at a time is also not possible under current site conditions. BRADLEY ROAD CLOSURE EXTENDED 8 The Salt Creek Trail will remain open throughout construction, although a segment near Bradley Road will be temporarily detoured through the surrounding neighborhood. Upon completion of the project, trail access and the existing tra c signal will be restored to their current configurations. This $19 million infrastructure investment is fully funded through a combination of federal programs, the County of Riverside Flood Control, the Local Transportation Climate Adaptation Program (LTCAP), the City of Menifee’s Quality of Life Measure, and other local funding sources.

If a holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, there will be no delay. HOLIDAY SCHEDULE 10 SUMMER 2025 HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: TIPS TO KEEP YOUR ORGANICS CART CLEAN: BUILD LAYERS SAFETY TIPS: • Keep a Safe Distance: Collection trucks stop and back up frequently. • Stay Clear: Keep your children clear of carts and our vehicles/trucks. Let the collection team in your neighborhood load trash or recycling into the truck. PREVENT TRASH FIRES IN YOUR COMMUNITY Did you know? The most common causes of trash fires are hot coals, ashes, and flammable items, such as batteries and household chemicals. You can help keep your family, community, and collection workers safe and prevent trash fires by properly disposing of coals and household hazardous waste. COOL YOUR COALS! • Cool your coals - hot coals and fresh ashes stay hot for several days. Let them cool for more than 48 hours before disposal. • Place your hot coals and ashes in a metal container and cover them with water to fully extinguish them. • Do not place coals and ashes in a plastic, paper, wood or galvanized container. • Do not place other combustibles in the container with the coals or ashes. Just as those coals helped to get your campfire or backyard BBQ going, they can quickly start a fire in your trash cart, the back of a collection truck or at a waste facility. Properly dispose of your hot coals and ashes: Green Waste Food Scraps + Food Soiled Paper Green Waste 1 2 3 4

NOTICE FOR HOMEOWNERS REGARDING USE OF PEDESTRIAN RAMPS FOR PRIVATE DRIVEWAY ACCESS Driving over pedestrian ramps, also known as curb and ADA ramps, is against the law in Menifee and can result in fines or penalties. These ramps are designed to ensure safe access for pedestrians, particularly those using wheelchairs, strollers, or walkers. Using them as a shortcut to your driveway not only poses a safety risk, but can lead to code enforcement violations. During home renovations or when a driveway is temporarily blocked, it is not permissible to use a pedestrian ramp as a makeshift entryway. Menifee has enacted strict regulations to protect pedestrian rights-of-way, and repeated violations can result in citations or even modifications being ordered to prevent misuse. As a homeowner, it's your responsibility to ensure that access to your property aligns with local building codes and does not impact public infrastructure. If you have concerns about driveway access or need accommodations, please call our Public Works Department at 951-723-1720 for guidance on legal alternatives.
