Cache Creek Pavement Project
Project Information
The Cache Creek Pavement project proposes to preserve, repair, and extend the service life of the existing pavement and improve ride quality near Tehachapi, from 0.1 mile west of Sand Canyon Road Undercrossing to 1.2 miles west of Business Route 68 West Overcrossing.

- Installing lighting systems at the on- and off-ramps at Sand Canyon Road, Cameron Road, and the weigh stations.
- Replacing existing weigh-in motion scales.
- Cleaning culvert throughout the project area.

Title VI Information
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) assures that no person shall, on the basis of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance, as required by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987, and Federal Executive Order 12898 (Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations).
Caltrans will make every effort to ensure nondiscrimination in all of its programs and activities, whether they are federally funded or not, and that services and benefits are fairly distributed to all people, regardless of race, color, or national origin. In addition, Caltrans will facilitate meaningful participation in the transportation planning process in a nondiscriminatory manner.
