Overview of Oxnard’s Rice Avenue / Fifth Street Overpass Project

The City of Oxnard is overseeing a project to construct an overpass on Rice Avenue over Fifth Street and the UPRR tracks.  The purpose of the infrastructure enhancement is to improve safety at the busy intersection and to streamline traffic and goods movement on Rice Avenue.  The overpass will eliminate the need for drivers to navigate the railroad tracks, where numerous accidents have occurred.
 
Justin Link, Transportation Services Manager for the City of Oxnard, and Chris Hooke, Deputy Director for the County of Ventura Transportation Department, will make the presentation.  Mr. Link recently joined the city and oversees the development of transportation improvements for the City.  He has over 12 years of experience in the private sector in traffic and transportation project development.  Mr. Hooke has been with the County’s Transportation Department for 18 years and has overseen the construction of improvements to the County road system. 
 
Please join us on February 8 at the Knowledge & Networking Lunch to find out all the details of the project.  The lunch will be at River Ridge Golf Club, 2401 W. Vineyard Avenue.  Check-in and networking start at 11:30.  Lunch is at noon, with the program to follow.
