Document Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) propose to upgrade a 1.5 mile segment of SR 49 from Ponderosa Way to north of Lode Line Way near Grass Valley. The goal of this project is to improve the operations and safety of SR 49 by widening the existing roadway from two lanes to four lanes with a continuous median/left turn lane, and to constructa signalized intersection near La Barr Meadows Rd. The project also proposes the cosntruction of frontage roads and the removal of existing at-grade intersections in order to direct traffic, which normally accesses SR 49 form private driveways, to the new signalized intersection.
