It is intended to provide the Palmera Ridge and Palmera Bluff neighborhoods access to Ronald Reagan Boulevard. The access to this road will reduce and redirect construction-induced traffic in the neighborhoods, according to the city.
“Police and fire departments are looking forward to having [the San Gabriel Parkway] road completed because it gives them access to the road on both the west and east ends,” capital improvement projects manager Tony Bettis said.
This phase of the project will also include a traffic signal installation at the intersection of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and San Gabriel Parkway.
