CTA Member Hosts Caltrans, CHP, SRTA

Representatives from Caltrans, CHP and Shasta Regional Transportation Agency (SRTA) joined CTA member Muse Trucking on a ride-along to inform the agencies on the major issues affecting the goods movement sector along the I-5 corridor in Shasta County. Caltrans and SRTA are in the process of developing and submitting grants to receive federal funding for upgrades and expansion on the I-5 in the Shasta region.

 

The ride-along provided the agencies’ representatives a freight-focused perspective on the challenges operators face on the corridor. SRTA have revised their top priorities to include extending onramps and expanding I-5 in the Redding urban area from two to three lanes to prevent collisions to reduce congestion from passenger vehicles exiting and entering from the interstate.

 

Thank you to Frank Muse of Muse Trucking for representing CTA and sharing solutions to challenges operators like himself face every day.
