The City of Santa Clarita will host a public information meeting Wednesday, May 13, from 6-8 p.m. to discuss the Newhall Ranch Road Bridge Widening project.

The meeting will be held at the Bridgeport Clubhouse, located at 27002 Edgewater Lane. All residents in Santa Clarita are welcome to attend the meeting, no RSVP is required to attend.

The project plans to widen the Newhall Ranch Road Bridge over San Fancisquito Creek by approximately 70 feet, also increasing the number of lanes from six to eight.

Street and bridge lighting and a new, low-water-use median would also be included in the project that would extend from Avenue Tibbitts to McBean Parkway.

A 16-foot wide multi-use trail will also be added connecting to the west bank section of the trail by constructing the missing trail link under the bridge.

Illustrative maps of the project area created by the City will be shown during the meeting.

The meeting will also outline constraints and obstacles for the project with an opportunity for discussion.

For more information about the project, contact Balvinder Sandhu at 661-255-4953 or by email at bsandhu@santa-clarita.com.
