Yucca Loma Bridge

Project:

Yucca Loma Bridge Over the Mojave River & Yates Rd

Owner:

Town of Apple Valley

Gen Contractor:

Security Paving

The Yucca Loma Bridge is a new east-west connection between the Mojave River crossings at Highway 18 and Bear Valley Road. It is the natural extension of Yucca Loma Road. It is a component of the larger Yucca Loma Road/Yates Road/Green Tree Blvd Transportation Project that ties to the Nisqualli Road Interchange in Victorville. To qualify for congestion relief funds, the bridge must not only get our citizens across the river, but ultimately connect to a direct route to I-15.

Our company was subcontracted to provide this bridge with 28 decorative lights along its path, interweaving our electrical wiring and conduit through the bridge’s columns and rails. We also built a brand new intersection at the beginning before the bridge on Yates rd & park rd, implementing about 4-5 signal poles and additional lumination, as well as installing video detection for more visibility of traffic and pedestrian and emergency responders ease through the installation of an opticom gps system to control the flow of traffic.
