STOCKTON – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is proposing to rescind the previously adopted route for sections of State Route 152 in Merced County from postmiles 23.93 – 40.95, near Los Baños from Sante Fe Grade Road to the Merced/Madera County line. The recission of the route adoption will allow Caltrans to dispose of the parcels of land under its ownership.
The California Transportation Commission (CTC) approved a report a titled State Route 152 Recission Evaluation Report Los Baños Area District 10 (RER) dated August 16, 2023. The report analyzed the original intent and plan for the construction of a freeway with restricted access points on this portion of State Route 152. The subsequent determination is that these improvements are no longer warranted.
