Document Description
NOTE: Joint Document consists of MND and EA
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) proposes two alternatives to widen a portion of State Route 119 from the existing two-lane highway to a four-lane highway in Kern County. The first alternative proposes to widen 7.3 miles of State Route 119 from 0.26 mile west of Cherry Avenue (post mile 6.0) to Tupman Road (post mile R13.3). This alternative would widen the existing highway through the communities of Valley Acres and Dustin Acres (from post miles 6.26 to R9.1). The second alternative proposes a four-lane expressway for 7.8 miles from 0.75 mile west of Cherry Avenue (post mile 5.5) to Tupman Road (post mile R13.3). This alternative proposes a southern bypass around the communities of Valley Acres and Dustin Acres.
