The work on I-210 is part of a $135.5 million project replacing all lanes of I-210 with new
pavement from Wheatland Ave to I-5. The on- and off-ramps, connectors and adjacent
shoulders will also be rehabilitated. Overhead sign structures, traffic loop detectors, center
median barrier, and the guardrail system will be upgraded. This project is funded by Senate Bill
1 (SB 1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.
Caltrans reminds drivers to be “Work Zone Alert” and to “Slow for the Cone Zone.”
