Document Description
The City of Monterey proposes to widen and upgrade Route 68 (Holman Highway) from two lanes to three/four lanes in Monterey County from approximately 0.2 kilometers (0.1 miles) west of the Community Hospital of Monterey Peninsula (CHOMP) entrance to the State Route (SR) 1 and Route 68 junction. Improvements to SR 1 south bound off-ramp and on-ramp are also included in the project. If implemented, the project would relieve existing and future traffic congestion, improve traffic safety, improve traffic operations, minimize delay of emergency vehicle access to the hospital, and reduce the incentive for bypass traffic through the Skyline Forest neighborhood. It would also result in improved access to the Pebble Beach entrance, the CHOMP and Beverly Manor Complex. The project consists of a no-build alternative; three build alternatives, and three variations of the build alternatives.
