State Route 49 Safe, Healthy, and Equitable Streets Improvement Project

in progress

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), working in cooperation with the Tuolumne County Transportation Council (TCTC), proposes to construct the State Route (SR) 49 Safe, Healthy, and Equitable Streets Improvement Project, in Tuolumne County in Jamestown from 0.2 miles south of Main Street to 0.2 miles north of Fifth Avenue. There are three build alternatives under consideration. Alternative 1 proposes to widen on both sides of the highway, Alternative 2 proposes to widen on the west side of the highway, and Alternative 3 proposes to make operational improvements on SR 49 including signal interconnect and other geometric improvements to the 5th Street, Rawhide, and Main Street intersections (no added travel lanes). All alternatives include construction of transit stops, electric car charging facilities, park-and-ride facility, shoulders, and sidewalks.
