Caltrans is planning on widening the shoulders for Highway 127 this fall and installing rumble strips between mile marker 28 and 28.5. The safety project, scheduled to be completed in early 2019, is taking comments and requests for a public hearing to be submitted no later than Jan. 29. The project has been identified in the Federal Highway Administration's Roadway Departure Safety Implementation Program with a projected cost of $1.13 million. "The benefit of the project will bring the shoulders to state standard and provide room for emergency vehicles and vehicles that may break down - it also provides more room for recovery if a motorist loses control," said Caltrans District 8 spokeswoman Terri Kasinga.
