State Route 99/120 Interchange Connector Project
Project Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 10, with the cooperation of the City of Manteca and the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG), proposes to reconstruct the existing State Route (SR) 99/120 Interchange. Due to funding constraints, the Project will be constructed in three phases:
- Phase 1A will widen the State Route 120 (SR 120) eastbound to southbound SR 99 connector, build the Austin Road and Union Pacific separation structure, realign the at grade crossing and construct local roads for access.
- Phase 1B will widen the SR 99 northbound to westbound connector.
- Phase 1C will complete the Austin Road Interchange and complete the local road improvements.
