The project will widen the eastbound SR 120 to southbound SR 99 connector ramp from one lane to two lanes, remove and replace the Austin Road overcrossing with a new 4-lane structure spanning SR 99 and UPRR, add a new connecting road from Austin Road to East Woodward Avenue and Moffat Boulevard, and modify the existing northbound Austin Road exit ramp. This grant award will enable Caltrans, the prime recipient, to deliver these key transportation infrastructure improvements. The San Joaquin Council of Governments has also been awarded a $XXXXX sub-grant to support project planning and implementation activities.
