+Expand/-Collapse   I5 / Genesee Ave Interchange Construction Project 2015-2017     I5 / Genesee Ave.
The Project will replace the existing six lane Genesee Avenue overpass with a ten lane bridge that will accommodate current and future traffic demands in the job intensive community. The project is an integral piece of the broader improvements planned along I-5 in the North Coast Corridor. Along with the replacement of the overcrossing, the project will also widen the freeway access ramps, add an auxiliary lane in the northbound direction on I-5 between Genesee Avenue and Roselle Street, and construct a new, separated bike path. By providing links to transportation, employment centers, hospitals, and UC San Diego, the project will greatly improve the movement of people and goods through the area.
