Drivers will notice a new traffic pattern on Holt Boulevard between Grove Avenue and Corona Avenue. To facilitate roadway widening, crews have shifted traffic south to create a protected work zone along westbound (WB) Holt Boulevard.

Work within these zones may include:

• Removing and reconstructing driveways, curbs and sidewalks
• Roadway excavation, paving and striping
• Removing and construction water and storm drain improvements
• Installing street light pokes and modifications to traffic signals
• Landscaping and irrigation

Two lanes will be maintained in each direction of Holt Boulevard during this time; however, street parking in this segment of the project corridor will be eliminated permanently. 

WHEN: The protected work zone along WB Holt Boulevard will be in place for approximately 10 months. Construction activities will generally occur during daytime hours (6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.), with intermittent nighttime work (6:00 p.m. – 7:00 a.m.)

WHAT TO EXPECT: Construction may be loud and dusty at times. Equipment including excavators, drills, jack hammers, and large construction vehicles will be used. Vibration may occur and you may hear hammering, banging, and engine noises as well as see sparks from saw cutting. Plan ahead and allow extra time to reach your destination. 

Once work is complete along WB Holt Boulevard, all lanes will shift north to the newly constructed roadway and crews will perform the same work in the opposite direction to accommodate the widening of the eastbound (EB) roadway.

The following work will take place on the West Valley Connector Project during the week of April 8:

• Holt Boulevard: Crews continue to relocate utilities along both directions of Holt Boulevard between Mountain Avenue and Bonita Court. Intermittent daytime lane closures may take place to facilitate this work, at least once lane will remain open at all times. Crews will also begin to remove driveways, curbs and sidewalks along WB Holt Boulevard between Corona Avenue and Grove Avenue (see section above for more information).

• Pomona Transit Center: Crews will continue construction activities at the Pomona Transit Center in order to accommodate project improvements. Work will take place in the southern loop of the transit center and will include fence and barrier installation and utility work. Construction at this location will be ongoing for several weeks.

• Parking Restrictions: Temporary "No Parking" signage has been placed in areas along Holt Boulevard between Central Avenue and Corona Avenue as crews prepare to shift traffic and place k-rail to accommodate roadway widening. Once traffic is shifted, street parking on Holt Boulevard in this segment of the project will be eliminated for the duration of construction. Vehicles parked in "No Parking" zones will be towed.

Work will generally occur Monday through Friday during daytime hours (8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.). Intermittent lane closures will take place in the work zones to facilitate this work, with at least one lane remaining open to traffic at all times.

At times, this work may be loud or cause minor increases in dust and vibration. Traffic delays are expected. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead, allow extra time to reach their destinations or use alternate routes, if possible.

The West Valley Business Connector Program is designed to encourage the community to shop local during project construction. Participation is free for eligible businesses along the project route in the City of Ontario. Once construction of the new BRT stations begins in 2025, businesses in the corridor cities of Pomona, Montclair, and Rancho Cucamonga will also be eligible for participation at no cost.

Participating businesses will be:



• Highlighted on @goSBCTA's social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and X)
• Shared in weekly project construction alerts
• Featured on the project webpage

The West Valley Connector (WVC) project will be a 100% zero-emission Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, the first stage of the San Bernardino County zero-emission Bus Initiative and second BRT route in San Bernardino County.

Phase I of the project is 19 miles and will upgrade a portion of existing Route 61 which runs along Holt Boulevard, adding approximately 3.5 miles as center-running, dedicated bus-only lanes. There will be 21 stations in Phase I that will provide an improved transit connection to Ontario International Airport (ONT) and help build transit connectivity by linking ONT, two Metrolink lines (San Bernardino and Riverside) and multiple major activity centers along the route including Ontario Mills and Victoria Gardens. Headways will be 10 minutes in the peak commute period and 15 minutes off-peak, providing a high level of service to the community.
