Interstate 215 / Keller Road New Interchange Project

Interstate 215 / Keller Road New Interchange Project

The City of Murrieta (City), in cooperation with California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 8, County of Riverside (County) and the City of Menifee, proposes a new full interchange and auxiliary lanes at Interstate 215 (I-215) and Keller Road in Riverside County. Along I-215, the project limits are from north of Clinton Keith Interchange to south of Scott Road Interchange. The project would also include traffic striping along Keller Road from Pamplona Avenue to Whitewood Road. Four alternatives are under consideration: three Build Alternatives (Alternative 2 - Spread Diamond Interchange, Alternative 3 - Partial Cloverleaf Interchange, and Alternative 5 - Compact Diamond), and the No-Build Alternative (Alternative 1). The purpose of this project includes improving connectivity to the regional transportation system and for future economic development and improving mobility for all users between the I-215, the cities of Murrieta and Menifee, and unincorporated Riverside County.
