Avenue 44 Paving Work Underway This Week in Indio

If you regularly travel along Avenue 44 in Indio, you'll want to know about road work happening through the end of this week. Crews started grinding and repaving the street on Monday as part of the city's annual infrastructure maintenance program, and the project is set to wrap up by Friday.

The work covers the stretch of Avenue 44 between Monroe Street and the Storm Channel. Indio Public Works says the project addresses aging road infrastructure while improving safety conditions on this section of roadway.

What to Expect This Week

The paving project runs through Friday, December 19, meaning you'll likely encounter equipment, lane closures, and slower traffic if you need to use Avenue 44 during this time. City officials are asking drivers to consider alternate routes when possible to help you avoid delays and keep the work zone safer for crews.

The timing puts the project on track to finish before the weekend, when traffic typically picks up heading into the holidays.

How It's Funded

This street repair is paid for through Measure X, the county's 1% sales tax that voters extended with Measure E. That funding stream supports various city services, including street maintenance, public safety operations, and park improvements across Indio.
