State Route 20 Timbuctoo Roadway Project
Project Facts
What We Are Doing
- Upgrade a two-mile section of State Route 20 from the Yuba River Bridge to about one-third of a mile east of Smartsville Road
- Straighten curves on a section of the highway
- Widen segments of highway to create uniform 12-foot wide lanes
- Widen shoulders to a standard 8-foot width
- Construct a new bridge on the realigned section of highway
- Increase sight distances for motorists traveling on the highway
The Reason For The Project
- Roadway no longer meets current 55-mph highway design standards
- Existing alignment and shoulder widths no longer meet current highway design standards
Project Cost
Total cost is estimated at $55.4 million in state and federal funds.
