The project to widen the Yolo Causeway is facing strong opposition despite claims of congestion relief due to concerns of inadequate environmental review, waste of public resources, and increased vehicle travel.
Former Caltrans Deputy Director raised concerns about the use of state funding for the causeway widening, leading to her losing her job when she wanted to call in state auditors.
The California Air Resources Board pointed out serious flaws in the environmental review of the causeway widening project, causing the CTC to remove funding discussion from the agenda.
Caltrans released the Final Environmental Impact Report for the causeway widening project but failed to address many concerns raised by commenters, emphasizing congestion relief for transit and freight despite the majority of traffic being single-occupancy vehicles.
