CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES - Week of January 17
Construction on the I-10/Alabama Street Interchange between Orange Tree Lane and Industrial Park Avenue has begun. Throughout construction, activities will include utility work, pavement and restriping of roads, placement of new traffic signals, traffic shifts, intermittent lane closures, and ramp closures. Please be aware and use caution throughout the corridor as workers and heavy equipment will be present. You should allow for extra time to reach your destination as you may experience delays.

For the next few weeks crews will work on roadway excavation, underground utilities, clearing and grubbing of the project site, and striping on Alabama Street and the I-10 off-ramps. Most of this work will occur behind k-rail.

At times work throughout the corridor may be loud and cause vibration. Please remember all construction is dynamic and the schedule is weather-permitting and subject to change.

You can sign up for text messages to alert you of closures, detours, and updates by texting i10alabama to (888) 525-1021 (Reply STOP to cancel, text HELP for help. Normal text and data message rates may apply.)

The SR 210 Lane Addition and Base Line Interchange project, designed to provide increased traffic flow throughout this corridor, will be built as one project. To eliminate the existing bottleneck and provide lane continuity, the SR 210 will be widened from Sterling Avenue to San Bernardino Avenue in the cities of San Bernardino, Highland, and Redlands, as well as an unincorporated portion of San Bernardino County. Base Line Interchange will also be widened from Buckeye Street to Seine Avenue in the City of Highland. For more information about the project and closures and detours, visit goSBCTA.com/SR210BaseLine.

The I-10/University Street Interchange project, designed to relieve congestion, improve safety, and improve traffic flow, will widen the westbound I-10 on-ramp and the eastbound I-10 off-ramp, and restripe University Street from Citrus Avenue to Central Avenue. For more information about the project and closures and detours, visit goSBCTA.com/i10university.
ABOUT THE I-10/ALABAMA STREET INTERCHANGE PROJECT
SBCTA, the City of Redlands, and the County of San Bernardino will improve the I-10 at Alabama Street Interchange between Orange Tree Lane and Industrial Park Avenue. The project will:

  • Widen and reconstruct off-ramps by adding two lanes to each existing ramp.
  • Widen Alabama Street in both the southbound and northbound directions to accommodate turn pockets onto I-10.
  • Provide Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps, pedestrian push buttons and signals, and detectable warning surfaces at intersections where crosswalks are included.
