The Highway 101 Operational Improvements between Milpas Street and Hot Springs Road/Cabrillo Boulevard mark one of the largest projects undertaken by Caltrans in Santa Barbara County.

The project construction costs are approximately $57 million and include the reconstruction of two major interchanges, six new or improved bridges, freeway widening, and improvements to local streets and circulation. Construction is slated to begin in the summer of 2008 and will take 4 years; each construction stage is approximately 1 year in length. Visit www.sbroads.com for more information on this project.

The Hwy 101 Improvements between Milpas and Hot Springs are funded by Measure D and state highway funds. Measure D was passed by the voters of Santa Barbara County in November of 1989 to improve transportation infrastructure in the county. Measure D is a one-half cent sales tax that is collected from 1990 to 2010 to fund transportation projects and programs.
