SAN JACINTO, CA — Skanska announces that it has been awarded the $107 million contract for the Mid County Parkway Ramona Expressway Project in San Jacinto, California, by the Riverside County Transportation Commission.

Currently limited to one lane in each direction, the bid-build project will widen 8 miles of the eastbound Ramona Expressway to improve safety and reduce congestion. The completed project will enhance economic opportunities in the region, lessen travel times, and improve access to employment, education, and multiple transportation options throughout the San Jacinto region.

“Skanska is a proud partner of the Riverside County Transportation Commission, and the Mid County Parkway Ramona Expressway Project is another infrastructure project that addresses congestion and enhances connectivity across the region,” said James Bailey, Executive Vice President of Skanska USA Civil’s West Coast operations. “Safety is a large component of this project. By widening the Ramona Expressway, we are addressing a corridor with a history of severe collisions. Improvements like the added raised median and new bridge over the San Jacinto River will create a safer, more reliable route for thousands of drivers every day.”

The scope of work includes the construction of a new 2,127-foot-long, 58-foot-wide cast-in-place box girder bridge over the San Jacinto River and a raised median, improving safety, connectivity, mobility, and access for residents and businesses in the San Jacinto area. In addition, the work will include constructing a wildlife crossing and preserving 177 acres for habitat mitigation.

The project will commence in February of 2026 and is expected to be completed in June 2028.
