""In 2020, this stretch of freeway has been ranked the worst truck bottleneck in California and the ninth worst truck bottleneck in the nation, as well as the second highest truck accident location in Southern California.""
""The total project cost is about $444 million, and is primarily funded by a Los Angeles County sales tax known as Measure M, and California's Trade Corridor Enhancement Program.""
A major construction project will close several lanes of a Southern California freeway this weekend, coinciding with the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The closure affects Highway 60 from 10 p.m. Thursday to Friday, impacting both directions. The 57/60 Confluence Chokepoint Relief Project aims to alleviate congestion and improve safety in the area, which has been ranked as a significant truck bottleneck. The project, costing approximately $444 million, is funded by local sales tax and is expected to be completed by July 2028.
