National Public Works Week is May 19-25 and City of Goleta Public Works staff will be at the Camino Real Marketplace (7004 Market Place Drive) for a community event on Thursday, May 23, from 3:00 – 6:00 p.m. This year’s theme, “It Starts Here,” represents the efforts put forth by public works professionals to keep our communities going. Infrastructure, growth and innovation, mobility, security and healthy communities all start with public works.

Join us for our annual community event to interact with City staff and have your questions answered on projects happening throughout Goleta. There will be equipment demonstrations, games, prizes and balloons for kids, educational materials for school age children, and light refreshments.

The City of Goleta’s Public Works department works hard year-round to improve the quality of life for those who live, work and play in Goleta. Current projects include: repaving portions of Cathedral Oaks Road, the addition of a sidewalk on Fairview Avenue between the Goleta Valley Library and Fairview Gardens, the San Jose Creek Bike Path Project, the Old Town Sidewalks Project, and the award-winning Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan which will make it easier to bike and walk around town.
