CALIFORNIA: SR 237/I-880 Extension Project
The SR 237 Express Lanes Extension project (the Phase 2 project for the SR 237 Express Lanes) builds upon the SR 237 Express Connectors Project (Phase 1) and will extend the Express Lanes to the west to the Mathilda Interchange, a distance of approximately four miles. The project will provide congestion relief with a focus on implementing an innovative and creative application (HOT lanes with continuous access) that could be used elsewhere across the county. SR 237 Express Lanes Phase 2 project includes the conversion of the remaining four miles of HOV lanes on SR 237 to express lane operations which extends current project to US 101.
Project Status
The project is complete.
VTA expended all VPPP funds. VTA successfully secured a financial loan from a bank to undertake the construction phase of the Phase 2 SR 237 Express Lanes project. VPPP funds for this project was used to evaluate different access arrangement – limited access versus near continuous access.
