Centennial Corridor Southbound State Route 99 and Westbound State Route 58 Connector
Project Description
The project proposes to construct a freeway-to-freeway connecter at the State Route 58 and State Route 99 interchange. The connector would enable traffic to go from the southbound State Route 99 freeway off-ramp just north of Stockdale Highway, travel along a direct connector on a curved alignment in the northwest quadrant of the interchange, and move onto westbound State Route 58 on the new freeway alignment.
Project Benefits
Purpose
The purpose of the project is to provide a connector ramp from southbound State Route 99 to westbound State Route 58.
Need
The project is needed to provide a final connector movement between State Route 99 and State Route 58 at the freeway interchange that will allow for truck and auto traffic to avoid the local street system for the transition from one highway to another.
