Document Description
The California Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration proposes to convert a 4.3 kilometer (2.7 mile) segment of State Route 99 in Merced County from a four-lane expressway to a six-lane freeway. This project would involve realignment east of and parallel to the current alignment. The proposed project would remove all at-grade intersections within the project area. Local traffic would be served by the extension of a frontage road that connects to a planned interchange to be located at the Westside Boulevard/Central Avenue intersection with State Route 99.
