On March 30, 2009, weather permitting, Sheldon Road ’s new northbound 99 on-ramp will permanently open to traffic, and all previous detours will be removed. As this new on-ramp opens, the existing on-ramp will temporarily close for reconstruction, requiring motorists traveling westbound on Sheldon Road seeking access to northbound 99 to utilize the new on-ramp. Construction on the Sheldon Interchange, currently one of the region’s largest active capital improvement projects, remains on schedule and is targeted for completion in fall 2009.
Built in the 1950s, the Sheldon Road|SR 99 interchange reconstruction addresses today’s traffic congestion and will accommodate future travel needs. The new interchange (funded by Measure A, federal/state agencies, and Elk Grove development impact fees) will improve the flow of traffic by adding four additional lanes (as well as turn lanes) on the overpass. Along with other improvements, this allows for significant traffic relief and enhanced safety for motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians.
