Martinez Refining Company said Monday it scheduled a maintenance project that will run from early January through early April and will result in more traffic in the area, periodic noise and increased flaring.
“This project is a major investment in our refinery’s future,” the refinery said on social media. “Due to a temporary increase in our contract workforce, we expect more vehicles in the mornings and evenings on the following roads near the refinery.”
Expect a traffic increase on Marina Vista Avenue between Interstate Highway 680 and Shell Avenue, and on Pacheco Boulevard between I-680 and Howe Road.
“We have carefully planned this work to minimize impacts to our neighbors, including mobilizing resources to address potential traffic impacts,” MRC said. “There may be periodic noise, minimal flaring, and additional lighting associated with the work.”
Anyone with questions is asked to call the company’s weekday phone number at (925) 313-3777 or the after-hours line at (925) 313-3601.
