Project Description
The Cypress Avenue Overcrossing is the first of three major interchange-related construction projects along the Interstate 10 corridor (I-10 Corridor) in Fontana. These projects are designed to ease the daily commute and provide enhanced access that would serve to unify the city. View the project's May 2009 press release.

To Be Completed by Fall 2010
The Cypress Overcrossing has an 18-month construction schedule and will be completed and open by early fall 2010. This target date is necessary to accommodate the traffic overflow expected during the reconstruction of the Interstate 10 at Citrus Interchange, which is scheduled to begin construction early 2011.

Necessary to Facilitate Commerce
The I-10 Corridor projects are necessary to facilitate commerce throughout the region. Because of the stature of these projects, funding for the I-10 at Cypress Avenue Overcrossing comes from several sources. Federal funding was secured by Congressman Joe Baca. This was combined with allocations from State of California Proposition 1B funds, County of San Bernardino Measure I funds, and local funds.

Project Partnerships
These projects will be realized through the partnership and cooperation of the California Department of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, and the San Bernardino Associated Governments.
