ONTARIO

Holt Boulevard Widening

CREWS COMPLETE TRAFFIC SWITCH ALONG 

HOLT BOULEVARD


To facilitate roadway widening for the new center-running BRT lanes, crews have switched traffic south to create protected work zones along westbound (WB) Holt Boulevard between Central Avenue and Corona Avenue. This configuration is expected to be in place for the next eight months, after which crews will perform the same work in the opposite direction to accommodate the widening of eastbound (EB) Holt Boulevard. Please be advised, street parking along both directions of Holt Boulevard in this segment of the project has been eliminated.


Work within the protected zones may include removal and relocation of curbs, sidewalks, driveways, utilities, fire hydrants, and light poles.


Two lanes will be maintained in each direction of Holt Boulevard during this time. Please use caution while traveling through construction zones, obey roadway and pedestrian signage, and do not bypass traffic in closed lanes.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

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.
