Description

What is the SR 79 Realignment Project?

The Project proposes to realign SR 79 between Domenigoni Parkway and Gilman Springs Road. Currently, the highway follows a circuitous north-south route through the downtown areas of Hemet and San Jacinto and needs improvements in efficiency, safety and capacity. The Project would realign the highway to provide a more direct route within the San Jacinto Valley. Regional motorists would be able to use a direct, north-south route while residents of Hemet and San Jacinto would enjoy better mobility on local streets.
