The California Transportation Commission (CTC) has approved funding for a crucial road rehabilitation project in Siskiyou County. The Montague Capital Preventive Maintenance (CAPM) project, set to improve a section of State Route 3 near Yreka, has been allocated $1.64 million from Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.

This pavement rehabilitation initiative will cover a stretch of highway from 0.6 mile north of Juniper Drive to 0.2 mile north of North 5th Street. The project aims to enhance road conditions and safety for local residents and travelers alike.
