Document Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration and the Shasta County Regional Transportation Planning Agency, proposes to increase the capacity and improve the operation and safety of State Route 44 in Shasta County from the Airport Road Overcrossing to the Deschutes Road Undercrossing.
The project includes the addition of one travel lane in each direction on Route 44, construction of an interchange near the existing Stillwater Road at-grade intersection, closure of the Gilbert Drive road connection at Route 44, and reconstruction of the highway drainage system. The existing bridges over Stillwater and Clough Creeks will be replaced due to their age and susceptibility to scour. In addition, new bridges will be constructed at Stillwater and Clough Creeks to accommodate the new eastbound travel lanes. Approximately 27 acres of new highway right of way will be acquired. Relocation of several residents in the vicinity of the proposed interchange may be necessary due to the need for additional highway right of way.
