NIGHT WORK ON US 101 AT SAN JUAN ROAD WILL AFFECT TRAFFIC January 20 – 21


Work on the new San Juan Road Interchange will shift traffic on Highway 101, between Dunbarton Road and Cole Road to the other side of the highway beginning January 20. The work will also temporarily close access to and from San Juan Road at Highway 101.

The lane switch and road closure will occur between 7:30 p.m. and 6 a.m. Monday, January 20 and Tuesday, January 21.

Motorists should detour to San Miguel Canyon Road.

Traffic on both northbound and southbound Highway 101, and San Juan Road will be affected; detour signs will indicate the closure and the shift of the traffic to the opposite side of the highway through the construction area.

The traffic crossover and temporary road closure is necessary to allow crews to install temporary concrete barriers for work on the center divider.

The San Juan Road Interchange Project will improve safety and reduce congestion on U.S. Highway 101 between Dunbarton Road in Monterey County and Cole Road in San Benito County. The $69 million project will remove three major at-grade intersections (San Juan Road, Dunbarton Road, and Cole Road) and replace them with a new interchange near the Red Barn at San Juan Road and U.S.101. The project is supported by $10 million from the Recovery Act and $28 million from Proposition 1B, a 2006 voter-approved bond. In total, nearly $15 billion in Proposition 1B funds have been distributed statewide.
