South warren street between west line street and west south street this project will replace the full width 40-foot pavement section and improve road

The Federal Highway Administration awarded California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) a $2.54 million Project Grant under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on September 10, 2025, for comprehensive roadway improvements along South Warren Street between West Line Street and West South Street. The project will replace the full-width 40-foot pavement section and improve roadway grade and drainage through construction or repair of curb and gutter, cross gutters, and intersection improvements at Lagoon and West South Streets. The scope includes construction of a continuous 10-foot Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant sidewalk with curb ramps, supplemented by trees, landscaping, and human-scale lighting to enhance the pedestrian environment. The project also evaluates traffic calming measures and pedestrian safety bulb-outs as budget allows.

The project is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2026, and reflects the Highway Planning and Construction program's focus on multimodal transportation network development and safety improvements. As a state-administered federal-aid highway program, the funding supports Caltrans' responsibility for infrastructure preservation and enhancement within California's transportation system. This award represents a component of the Federal Highway Administration's broader investment in highway construction, reconstruction, and related safety and accessibility improvements across the United States.
