One Voice effort seeks fund for 120-99 work
KEEPING SJ COUNTY MOVING
bypass project
The initial phase of the fix for the 120 Bypass/Highway 99 interchange includes 1) swinging Woodward Avenue south to Austin Road. 2) Making the current Woodward Avenue crossing of the railroad tracks 90 degrees. 3) Building new Austin Road bridge that would cross Highway 99 and the railroad tracks. 4) A new northbound 99 off ramp for Austin Road. 5-6) Temporarily shutting down the southbound off ramp and northbound on ramp at Austin Road. 7) Building a two-lane transition from the eastbound Bypass to southbound 99.
The 120 Bypass/Highway 99 interchange will become a continuous construction zone for the next five years if San Joaquin County leader are successful. It would mean funding would need to be in place to allow the three-phase project to happen without gaps once the first phase breaks ground later this year. I
