Plan Ahead
The U.S. Highway 50 Design-Build Multimodal Corridor Enhancement Project (also known as the Fix50 Highway Enhancement Project) is in continued construction.
Starting this Saturday, July 15, Caltrans is scheduled to place an additional traffic shift on westbound US-50 from the Watt Avenue Exit to 65th Street. Signs will guide motorists ahead of the traffic split:
- Motorists on westbound US 50 exiting Howe Avenue/Sacramento State University must stay in the outside two right lanes at the traffic split.
- Motorists on westbound US 50 driving toward downtown Sacramento will minimize traffic delays if they stay in the left two inside bypass lanes at the traffic split.
The split is scheduled to remain in place for the next three months. Assorted lane and ramp closures are planned at night throughout the week and the remainder of the summer. For more information, please visit

Caltrans advises motorists traveling to Sacramento State not to rush. Leave early and expect delays.
Please avoid last minute lane changes. Do NOT cross the white solid lane lines — it is illegal. CHP is patrolling the area and will issue citations.
