Summitview Road is a freight route for fruit industry. The roadway was too narrow causing conflicts between large fruit trucks and workers commuting to warehouses.

This project widened Summitview Road from 20 feet with little to no shoulders, to a 40 foot roadway with 12 foot lanes and 8 foot shoulders. Horizontal and vertical alignment improvements were also incorporated. Structural improvements were also made. This was imperative due to the type and volume of traffic on this road. Summitview Road is a Rural Major Collector, Class 3 (T-3) truck route with an ADT of 4,900.
