About the Project

The San Benito Route 156 Improvement Project will construct a four-lane expressway immediately south of the existing Hwy. 156 alignment. This 5.2-mile project extends from San Juan Bautista at The Alameda and continues to just east of Hwy. 156 Business Route (4th St.) in Hollister.

Travelers are encouraged to be aware of electronic message boards, flaggers and all highway workers within this work zone.
