Crews will conduct pile driving operations over the next month as part of the expansion of the Newport Road bridge at the Interstate 215 interchange, the City of Menifee announced.

Pile driving involves driving steel beams deep into the soil as part of the foundation for the new south portion of the expanded bridge. Those in the area may experience extra noise and vibrations during the operation, which will happen on weekdays (excluding Memorial Day) between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. through June 30.
