The Riverside County Transportation Commission awarded a $5 million contract to Los Angeles Engineering, Inc. to construct an RTA bus transit center, commuter parking lot, and future platform for the Metrolink Perris Valley Line.  The work area is generally bounded by the BNSF tracks to the east, “C” Street on the west, San Jacinto Street on the north, and 4th Street (SR 74) on the south.  The work includes improvements on San Jacinto and “C” Streets and will close 2nd Street between “C” and “D” Streets.  Work started in mid-January and will extend through the summer. 

The status of work and general information about construction will be available at the City of Perris website or the RCTC website.  Traffic detours and disruption will occur during construction, especially along “C” and San Jacinto Streets.  RCTC has retained the Owens Group as Construction Manager and questions or concerns about construction may be addressed to their Resident Engineer, Tom Ferguson at 951-229-0169.
