Santa Monica — The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) invites community members and stakeholders to attend an informational meeting about the Pacific Coast Highway Pavement Rehabilitation Project at 6 p.m. March 27 in the multipurpose room at the Santa Monica Main Library, 601 Santa Monica Blvd. The project will also incorporate Complete Streets elements that enhance safety.
The meeting is intended for the project team to share information and schedules for the proposed improvement project on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH/State Route 1) between McClure Tunnel in Santa Monica and just south of Cross Creek Road in Malibu, including safety enhancement measures. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.
The scope of work for this project, which is expected to begin in summer 2027, would include:
· Rehabilitate pavement along PCH from McClure Tunnel to Cross Creek Road
· Upgrade existing ADA Ramps and existing Metal Beam Guard Rail (MBGR)
· Improve lighting in the Roosevelt Tunnel and Will Rogers Parking Lot Tunnel underground pedestrian crossings
· New sidewalks at multiple bus stop locations
· A new overhead sign at Sunset Avenue
· Additional Class II bike lanes and striping
· Additional pedestrian warning signs
The goal of this project is to extend the service life of the pavement and improve ride quality for motorists.
Caltrans has identified this location as a top-priority safety corridor. It is also a Complete Streets project, meaning the scope aims to increase safety and mobility features for cyclists, pedestrians and motorists to share the road.
The total estimated cost for the project is $72 million. Construction is expected to be completed by summer 2029.
