Current Lane Closures A one lane closure to northbound McKinley Street remains in place from Magnolia Avenue to Sampson Avenue while crews safely perform drilling operations. New Traffic Pattern Coming Soon The upcoming stage of construction activity requires a new traffic pattern on McKinley Street that will reduce southbound McKinley to one lane from SR-91 to Estelle Street. This closure is anticipated to begin in approximately one month and will occur in tandem with the ongoing one lane closure highlighted above to northbound McKinley Street. This traffic control pattern will remain in place 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, through the end of the year. Stay in the loop by texting MCKINLEY to 844-518-1409 to receive the latest construction updates directly on your cell phone.

During construction, please remember to obey all traffic signs and allow for extra travel time. Speeding through parking lots to skip traffic is illegal. Your cooperation keeps our crews safe. *Please note: Construction activity is dependent upon many variables and is subject to change.

Project Overview

The McKinley Street Grade Separation Project is set to change the way you travel through McKinley Street. City of Corona residents and commuters experience significant traffic congestion daily on McKinley Street. To improve this, a suspension bridge will be built elevating McKinley Street over the BNSF railroad tracks and Arlington Channel. Construction will extend from State Route 91 on the north side to Magnolia Avenue on the south side. Once complete, the project will relieve traffic congestion, improve mobility and safety for both motorists and pedestrians, as well as improve emergency response times, air quality and noise. Expected project completion is Winter 2023/24.
