FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Caltrans Releases Final Environmental Impact Report/
Environmental Assessment with Finding of No Significant Impact
For U.S. Highway 101 Managed Lanes Project
Final Report Available Online
SAN MATEO COUNTY - The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) released the Final Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Assessment (FEIR/EA) with a Finding of No Significant Impact for the San Mateo Highway 101 Managed Lanes Project, approving the project to build new 16-mile express lanes on Highway 101 between Interstate 380 in San Bruno and Whipple Avenue in Redwood City. The new express lanes will connect to an eight-mile stretch of carpool lanes that extend from Whipple Avenue to San Antonio Road in Palo Alto. As part of the project, Caltrans will convert the carpool lanes into express lanes, creating two 22-mile express lanes in each direction from Interstate 380 to San Antonio Road.
“The completion of the Environmental Impact Report marks a significant development in the progress of this project,” said Caltrans District Director Tony Tavares. “An approved environmental document means Caltrans is much closer to its goal of bringing congestion relief to Highway 101 on the Peninsula.”
Caltrans prepared the FEIR/EA to examine the potential environmental impacts of the U.S. Highway 101 Managed Lanes Project.
The document provides information about the purpose of the project, alternatives considered, impacts on the environment, and measures taken to avoid and minimize impacts. It also contains responses to comments received on the Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Assessment (DEIR/EA) and Recirculated Partial DEIR/EA.
Caltrans is the lead agency under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The environmental document is available for viewing and download on the project webpage: www.dot.ca.gov/d4/101managedlanes/.
Depending on the availability of funding, construction of the estimated $519 million project is anticipated to start Spring of 2019.
