Project Description

The project improvements at the 4th Street and I Street intersection consisted of reconstructing a private office complex driveway (south side of I Street) and constructing a driveway to create a new exit point out of the Amtrak Station, along the north side of I Street onto the existing ramp to I-5. A new traffic signal was added along with enhanced pedestrian crossings at this intersection.

Costs and Funding

The total project cost was $2.5 million. Funding is provided by federal and local matching funds.

Updates

The project was completed in May 2013.
