INTERSTATE 80/ASHBY AVENUE (ROUTE 13) INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT – (Ashby Avenue [SR-13]-Shellmound Street)

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 4, in partnership with the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC), proposes to provide interchange and local road improvements along Interstate 80 (I-80) at the Ashby Avenue Interchange (interchange). The interchange is located between post miles (PM) 3.9 and 5.0 on I-80 and between 13.7 and 13.9 on State Route (SR) 13 in the cities of Emeryville and Berkeley in Alameda County. The proposed project would replace the existing elevated interchange connector ramps with a new bridge over I-80, realign access to West Frontage Road, and introduce a new bicycle and pedestrian overcrossing and connection from 65th Street/Shellmound Street to the San Francisco Bay Trail. An electronic copy of the DED is available for review at the following locations: • Caltrans District 4 environmental documents webpage: https://dot.ca.gov/caltrans-near-me/district-4/d4-popular-links/d4-environmental-docs • Alameda County Transportation Commission website: www.I80Ashby.com
