Document Description: Note: Review Per Lead Caltrans proposes to increase motorist safety and reduce collisions on SR 49 at the intersection of Borland Ave/Lincoln Way in the city of Auburn, Placer County, PM 1.8 through 2.4. Caltrans proposes realigning the curve approach to the Borland Ave/Lincoln Way intersection and increase the radius (line of sight) for motorists approaching from the south. Caltrans proposes to install a roundabout traffic feature at the intersection to allow traffic continuous flow through the intersection as opposed to stacking up in the blind curve south of the intersection.
