Gavin Canyon Undercrossing Bridge Construction 

Summary 

 As part of the I-5 North County Enhancements Project, Metro’s contractor OHLA-USA, will be extending the existing Gavin Canyon Bridge to accommodate the new high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. This bridge crosses over The Old Road (Rd), located between Calgrove Bl and Weldon Canyon Rd.  

Construction will take place along the outside shoulders, center median, and along The Old Rd. Activities will include form, rebar, falsework, and concrete work.  

At the completion of construction, improvements are expected to enhance traffic flow and safety, reduce congestion, and make commuting smoother.  

This bridge extension is anticipated to be completed by Winter 2025
