Document Description
Catrans is preparing to complete a safety project on U.S. Route 101 in Del Norte County from post mile 20.64 to 22.02. The purpose of the project is to eliminate cross centerline collisions at this location, which have claimed 7 lives and caused several injuries since 2003. Caltrans proposes to construct a concrete medium barrier from post mile 20.95 to approximately 21.15. To allow for tapering, the project would eliminate a southbound passing lane from approximately PM 20.6 to 21. Elimination of the passing lane would provide the roadway width required for a barrier and the recommended five-foot buffer between live traffic and the barrier face.
