Piñon School Access Road Construction

Published on June 03, 2025

Activity for August 11, 2025

The Piñon Access Road project is nearing substantial completion and is now open for school access! There are just a few finishing touches left, including some concrete sidewalk work and the drainage swale, which are expected to be completed by the end of September.

The project, a partnership between the County Public Works Department and Los Alamos Public Schools, involves road and drainage improvements for the north access road to Piñon School. 

The project will temporarily close the current Piñon Access Road at Sherwood Boulevard. Pedestrian access to the tennis courts will be provided with parking in the Piñon Park/Rocket Park parking lot.  (See Map Below)

Hours of Construction

Jaynes Corporation will work from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, with the addition of weekends, as needed. Residents can expect large equipment and construction noise.

Traffic Impact

To minimize disruption, the contractor will notify affected business owners and residents for certain construction logistics, and traffic changes as work progresses.  Services such as mail delivery, trash and recycling collection, school bus, transit, and emergency services will be maintained.

Pedestrians should follow all detour signs. Motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians are advised to use caution around construction activities and avoid entering the work zone.

Help us keep you informed

All questions, concerns, or special access needs should be sent to the Public Works Department at lacpw@lacnm.us or call 505-662-8150. We thank residents and business owners in advance for their cooperation and patience.
