Mulberry Street and State Route 216 (Naranjo Boulevard) Roundabout

The California Department of Transportation, specifically District 6 in Fresno/Bakersfield, in coordination with the City of Woodlake, is preparing to construct a roundabout at the intersection of State Route 216, also known as Naranjo Boulevard, and the extended Mulberry Street in Tulare County. This infrastructure project aims to improve traffic flow, enhance safety, and reduce congestion at this key junction by replacing the current intersection with a modern roundabout design. The project is located in the 93286 ZIP code area and is part of broader efforts to modernize transportation infrastructure in the region. The project is publicly forecasted with a posted date of June 23, 2026, and the primary point of contact is Judith Lopez, Senior Environmental Scientist at Caltrans, who can be reached via email at judith.lopez@dot.ca.gov or by phone at 559-240-5068. Additional details, including environmental assessments and project planning documents, are available through the CEQA Net portal using the project identifier 2026061006. Although formal solicitations and set-aside details have not yet been released, the project is anticipated to follow standard Caltrans procurement and environmental compliance procedures, with potential opportunities for local and disadvantaged businesses as the planning progresses.
