Potential improvements aimed at making a portion of State Route 67 safer for motorists will be the topic of discussion when Caltrans hosts a public scoping meeting Thursday, from 4-7 p.m. at Olive Peirce Middle School, 1521 Hanson Lane, in Ramona. 

The meeting is the first stage in community discussions regarding possible improvement alternatives including various median barriers for the stretch of SR-67 between Willow Road and Shady Oaks Drive. 

Caltrans said the primary purpose of this project is to reduce the number and severity of accidents on Route 67. Alternatives considered include a concrete median barrier, a high tension cable median barrier, a metal median barrier and a median buffer.

Staff will be on hand to provide info and answer questions about the project.

There will be displays showing what is being proposed, along with a comment table. Comment can be emailed to ct.public.information.d11@dot.ca.gov or mailed to the Caltrans District Office at 4050 Taylor Street MS-121 San Diego CA 92110.
