Document Description
NOTE: Joint Document consists of Draft EIR and Environmental Assessment.
Caltrans, in cooperation with the City of San Juan Capistrano, proposes to re-configure the existing I-5/Ortega Highway interchange in the City. The project would help facilitate traffic movement and alleviate congestion. The alternatives under consideration would either provide a partial cloverleaf interchange design or provide a double cloverleaf interchange design with dual lane loop on-ramps in the northwest and southwest corners of the interchange. The Ortega Highway bridge overcrossing would be widened under both alternatives within the immediate interchange area.
