Miramar Road – Interstate 805 Easterly Ramps to 300 Feet East of Eastgate Mall – Phase 2

Background

This project provides for widening Miramar Road to eight lanes from the Interstate 805 easterly on and off-ramps to 300 feet east of Eastgate Mall. It includes dual left-turn lanes for eastbound Miramar Road at Eastgate Mall and a right turn pocket for westbound Miramar Road at Eastgate Mall.

Description

The needed street dedication for this project was delayed. Therefore, a portion of the improvements are now scheduled to be done in 2010. The improvements that were delayed (Phase 2) are a right turn pocket for westbound Miramar Road at Eastgate Mall and adjustments to the existing traffic signal to accommodate the proposed turn lane. All other road improvements have been constructed.
