Construction has concluded on the Junction Boulevard and Event Center Drive intersection. The new intersection opened to the public during the week of September 9.
This work is part of ongoing upgrades to @the Grounds, previously known as the Placer County Fairgrounds, and added a traffic signal and second entrance to the facility. These changes help improve traffic flow in the area, particularly during large special events.
This $1.5 million project is paid for by the Traffic Mitigation Fund, Public Facilities Fund, and a land acquisition agreement between the City and Placer County.
Future updates are also planned for the other @the Grounds entrance at the Washington Boulevard, All America City, and Lincoln Street intersection.
For questions about construction, please call (916) 773-5400 or email Placer Valley Tourism.
