Contract awarded for development of toll lanes on I-10 freeway

Iteris, Inc. has been awarded a five-year contract from the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for $2.8 million to support the development of the I-10 Express Lanes.

SBCTA’s project proposes to widen the I-10 highway for a stretch of 11 miles between the I-10/I-15 interchange and Pepper Street. One express lane will be added in each direction as well as new auxiliary lanes, and additional California Highway Patrol (CHP) enforcement areas.

Under the terms of the contract, Iteris will provide a number of design services, including toll infrastructure; closed circuit television systems; changeable message signs; fiber optic cable systems; traffic monitoring systems and more.

“We are thrilled to have been chosen to support this important initiative for San Bernardino County Transportation Authority,” said Steven Bradley, regional vice president, Consulting Services at Iteris. “We realize the impact of this project is critical to improving movement on this highway, and we look forward to working closely with SBCTA, Caltrans, Advanced Civil Technologies and other stakeholders to make it successful.”
