The Port of Los Angeles and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will start work this month on a $130-million project to reconfigure a major interchange at State Route 47 (SR 47)/Vincent Thomas Bridge and Front Street/Harbor Boulevard in San Pedro. The interchange reconfiguration is intended to reduce travel times, alleviate congestion and improve motorist and pedestrian safety at the highly traveled roadway juncture.
The SR 47/Vincent Thomas Bridge and Front Street/Harbor Boulevard interchange currently provides access to San Pedro, Wilmington and Terminal Island and services the West Basin Container Terminal. The reconfiguration project will replace an existing southbound SR 47 off-ramp from the Vincent Thomas Bridge, currently located on the south side, with a new off-ramp on the north side.
Additional improvements include realigning the existing on-ramp to northbound Interstate 110 connector; modifying the northbound SR 47 off-ramp onto Harbor Boulevard; and modifying the northbound SR 47 on-ramp onto the bridge toward Terminal Island.
“This interchange project will greatly enhance traffic safety for our communities while improving Port efficiencies and traffic flow,” said Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka. “As the nation’s largest port complex, we need to maintain and improve our infrastructure to meet that demand, including roadways.”
