This project will construct a new, four-lane underpass on Jurupa Rd under Van Buren Blvd and the Union Pacific Railroad bridge. The underpass will improve safety and traffic circulation by separating train traffic from vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.

The Riverside Transmission Reliability Project (RTRP) is a joint project between Southern California Edison (SCE) and the Riverside Public Utilities (RPU). 

SCE and approved contractor crews will soon be working on the electrical grid in Jurupa Valley to implement improvements that boost Riverside's electric transmission capacity and support the growing energy demands.
