Caltrans is allocating $2 million to a project that will upgrade sections of Highway 246 and Highway 1 in Lompoc.
The funding, announced this week, is part of $578 million going to projects to repair and improve transportation infrastructure throughout the state. More than half of the funding comes from the SB1 gas tax.
The Lompoc project will include pavement rehabilitation and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) upgrades on the portion of Highway 246 from west of V Street to H Street and on Highway 1 from H Street to 12th Street.
