The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), in cooperation with the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) and the City of San José, proposes to modify the existing I-280/Winchester Boulevard interchange by constructing a new tunnel off-ramp from northbound I-280 towards Winchester Boulevard.
The Project would also construct a new direct connector ramp from northbound SR-17 to northbound I-280 and would replace the existing Monroe Pedestrian Overcrossing. The purpose of the Project is to improve traffic operations on the local roadways, improve bicycle and pedestrian access and transit connectivity, and improve access from northbound I-280 in the project area.
The Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR)/Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Project was circulated for public review between July 26 and September 8, 2023. A Final EIR/EA was prepared and includes responses to comments received during the public comment period. Caltrans certified the Final EIR/EA and filed a Notice of Determination for the Project with the State Clearinghouse (SCH 2020090118) on April 29, 2025.
