EAST PALM CANYON ROAD WIDENING PROJECT OPENING EARLIER THAN EXPECTED
The East Palm Canyon Drive (Highway 111) Widening Project will open all lanes of traffic earlier than originally projected. According to Cathedral City Community Public Works Department, the widening and repaving project will open all lanes of traffic on Friday about a week ahead of schedule.
The widening project consisted of pulverizing the existing worn pavement, repaving all existing lanes, and increasing traffic capacity with the addition of another eastbound lane, making it three lanes instead of the previous two eastbound lanes.
