Project Overview

SBCTA’s Interstate 10 Corridor Project is comprised of three phases of improvements to benefit the movement of both people and goods on this facility that is important to both San Bernardino County residents and to the local and national economy. The first phase, stretching 10 miles from the Los Angeles County line to I-15, is currently under construction. The second phase, stretching 11.1 miles from I-15 to Pepper Avenue in Colton, is in design and the final funding components are being sought to enable construction to begin in 2024. The third and final future phase of 12 miles will be from Pepper Avenue to Ford Street in Redlands.

For the Phase 1 project, a single new lane is being constructed and combined with the existing HOV lane to provide two tolled express lanes in each direction. The lanes will be available to HOV 3+ vehicles at a discount, In addition, lanes to assist drivers getting on and off the freeway (auxiliary lanes) are being constructed in selected locations.

Eighteen bridges throughout the corridor will either be replaced, widened, or improved to accommodate the widening of the freeway. Click here Interactive project map to learn more about the bridges.

 

Westbound and Eastbound I-10 Lane Configuration Changes 

As construction continues on the SB Express Lanes, the I-10 freeway lanes were reconfigured in select areas on the westbound and eastbound freeway. This configuration is needed to advance construction, install toll equipment, and provide safe, dedicated work zones. To improve the driver experience, there is enhanced lane striping in these areas. The new configurations began in early August at the following locations:

  • WB I-10 approaching Euclid Avenue to Central Avenue
  • EB I-10 approaching Monte Vista Avenue to 4th Street

For more information, please read the Lane Configuration Notice.

Westbound I-10 Access from Euclid Avenue

The westbound (WB) I-10 on-ramp from southbound (SB) Euclid Avenue is closed. Motorists can access the WB I-10 loop on-ramp at Euclid Avenue via a new extended left-turn only lane approaching 8th Street to 7th Street – lanes are shifted to the west to create this new left-turn only lane. Alternatively, motorists can use 9th Street to Mountain Avenue to access the WB I-10 on-ramp at Mountain Avenue. Access to WB I-10 for motorists traveling northbound (NB) on Euclid Avenue will remain the same.

Please note, parking on SB Euclid Avenue from 8th Street to 7th Street will be prohibited. Driveways will remain accessible and there will be no changes to resident mail, deliveries, or trash services.

In Phase 2, single toll express lanes (also referred to as managed lanes) will be constructed (where there are currently no HOV lanes). Together, these express/managed lanes will open up a new opportunity to provide travel time incentives to transit, shared-ride vehicles, and zero-emission vehicles. Phase 2 will also construct three strategic eastbound (EB) auxiliary lanes or acceleration lane extensions and one westbound (WB) auxiliary lane to improve truck operations and safety, as shown in the graphic. The I-10/I-15 interchange is ranked the 10th most critical truck bottleneck in the U.S. by the American Transportation Research Institute, and these improvements will help to relieve congestion in the vicinity of that interchange.

SB Express Lanes Questions & Answers

In an effort to safely advance construction and begin toll lane equipment testing, lanes on eastbound and westbound I-10 will be configured into new traffic patterns. The new configurations will create dedicated work areas (separated by concrete barriers) either along the shoulder or median on westbound I-10 approaching Euclid Avenue to Central Avenue and on eastbound I-10 approaching Monte Vista Avenue to 4th Street. To improve the driver experience, there will be enhanced lane striping in these areas.

Motorists are encouraged to leave early, slow down, and follow construction signage as they adjust to the new lane configurations.
