Caltrans says that construction crews will open Cesar Chavez Boulevard at State Route 98 in Calexico Wednesday.

That's two months earlier that expected. At the same time , the full closure on SR-98 from V V Williams through the Cesar Chavez Boulevard intersection will be moved to a three-block portion of the highway just east of Cesar Chavez to just west of Ollie Avenue. This will be the fourth , and final , phase of the SR - 98 Widening Project. This stage is expected to take four months to complete. The project , at a cost of $12.9 million , began in March and will be completed in early 2018.
