(The Ground has been broken)….The Ceremony was held Tuesday.

Work, however, will not begin until mid September. The project is the rehabilitation of Cesar Chavez Boulevard in Calexico. Once completed, Cesar Chavez will be the main artery in and out of the newly expanded Calexico Port of Entry, taking the traffic congestion off Imperial Avenue. The $7.5 million project will add an extra lane to Cesar Chavez Boulevard as well as sidewalks and street lights. SB 1 funding is being used for the project.
