The freeway's path would then turn northwest, crossing both&nbsp;Stockdale Highway and Truxtun, in order to connect with the Westside Parkway near Mohawk Street.</p> Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:04:50 +0000 Joe Moore 6945 at http://kvpr.org Caltrans Picks Preferred Route For Centennial Corridor Freeway in Bakersfield Veterans Boulevard funding up for vote http://kvpr.org/post/veterans-boulevard-funding-vote <p>Fresno&rsquo;s long planned Veterans Boulevard interchange on Highway 99 between Herndon and Shaw Avenues may be closer to becoming a reality.</p><p>The Fresno City Council is scheduled to vote Thursday on a plan to spend $5.4 million on design and engineering plans for the roadway, which will connect Herndon Avenue across Highway 99 with Grantland Avenue.</p> Wed, 18 Jul 2012 00:04:00 +0000 Joe Moore 470 at http://kvpr.org Veterans Boulevard funding up for vote
