A Folsom segment of the Capital SouthEast Connector project will fully open to motorists this June. White Rock Road–from Prairie City Road to East Bidwell Street–has been reconstructed from a two-lane rural road to a safer, higher-capacity four-lane expressway. The project also included the construction of a four-lane bridge over Alder Creek and new traffic signals at Prairie City Road, east Bidwell Street, and the future Oak Avenue. Construction will begin on the Scott Road Extension Project this spring.

The Capital SouthEast Connector is the Sacramento region’s largest approved transportation project. The planned 34-mile expressway will connect the southern area of Sacramento County to El Dorado County in the east and serve as a connection between Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, and Folsom.
