PROJECT LAUNCH RSVP
Join us as we launch California’s first smart freeway system. This project uses advanced traffic sensors, adaptive ramp meters, and variable digital message signs to optimize traffic flow along an eight-mile stretch of northbound I-15.
We invite you to commemorate this significant milestone in our community. The event will begin at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, May 29 at the Temecula Civic Center located at 41000 Main Street, Temecula, CA 92590
Light breakfast and refreshments will be provided at 9:00 a.m.

RCTC, in partnership with Caltrans, the City of Temecula, Western Riverside County Council of Governments (WRCOG) are implementing an innovative corridor approach for improved traffic operations on northbound I-15 from the San Diego/Riverside County Line in Temecula to the I-15/I-215 Interchange in Murrieta.
The pilot project will use sensors and “smart” technology to continuously monitor real-time traffic conditions on this eight-mile, non-tolled section of I-15. The pilot project will also use ramp meters that work as a coordinated system that adapts to allow more or fewer vehicles to enter I-15 at any given time from the Temecula Parkway, Rancho California Road, and Winchester Road on-ramps.
