Hazelton Avenue Phone (209) 468-3000 Project Description Prior to improvements by San Joaquin County, Cherokee Road was a challenging area to travel through not only for vehicles but pedestrians as well.

The roadway also lacked an integrated storm drainage system, as only some portions had rudimentary drain inlets and intermittent roadside ditches. Other areas simply pooled or drained into the surrounding properties. Additionally, the corridor lacked pedestrian facilities despite the high volume of pedestrian traffic in the area including: schoolchildren; business patrons; and […]
