Swinburne Street

Developer: Department of Mobility and Infrastructure

Project summary: Due to slope instability issues, DOMI closed Swinburne Street between Greenfield Ave and Edgehill St/Childs St on the Greenfield/South Oakland border as of October 21, 2019 to complete improvements. This $710,000 project includes construction of a wall and soil stabilization.

During construction, Swinburne St will be closed to traffic in both directions for approximately five months. Detour routes are posted. Access to the Sestili Nursery will still be maintained.

As of March 9, 2020, Swinburne St has been reopened to traffic. The road will remain open until final paving is done in the spring. Upon completion of paving, Swinburne will then be fully reopened with unrestricted two way traffic.

Swinburne Street has now completely reopened on May 20, 2020. Following seven months of construction, both lanes are now open to traffic.
