CTA in Action: Government Affairs Update
In an effort to provide CTA members with current information on some of the issues the CTA Government Affairs team is working on, we’ve created the monthly CTA Hot Topic memo. The memo provides members with a glimpse of some of the issues CTA is engaged on. The Hot Topic memo is updated every month so keep an eye out for it. To view the August Hot Topics memo click here. For more information regarding these or any other issue contact Eric Sauer at esauer@caltrux.org.

There is a large construction project underway along I-5 in northern San Diego County. The construction requires Caltrans and the contractor to close the View Point along southbound I-5 just north of Manchester Avenue for approximately five years. You can view the location on Google Maps here. As mentioned, CMS signage will be posted in this week notifying the public of the closure. If you would like any additional information on the project, please visit Keep San Diego Moving.
