On April 30, the South Bay Council of Governments board of directors approved the fiscal year 2026\u201327 Measure R and Measure M allocations, and this project was among those selected. After three years of persistent work by Councilman Tim McOsker\u2019s office, the project has secured an initial $3.5 million allocation to fund the project approval and environmental document, a critical step that will support early design and environmental review. The goal of this project is to connect the eastern end of Lomita Boulevard with Alameda Street in East Wilmington, helping redirect commercial truck traffic away from residential areas near Drumm Avenue. For too long, residents in this community have dealt with the impacts of heavy truck traffic, and this project is designed to bring meaningful relief. While this is a long-term effort, this funding marks a major first step and puts us firmly on the path toward a safer, healthier, and more connected Wilmington.<\/p>\n<p>Like this:<\/p>\n<p>Like Loading&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"sd-link-color\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Related<\/p>\n<p>         Previous article<a href=\"https:\/\/www.randomlengthsnews.com\/archives\/2026\/05\/04\/chronic-stress\/75415\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chronic Stress Linked to Increased Risk of Stroke<\/a>Next article<a href=\"https:\/\/www.randomlengthsnews.com\/archives\/2026\/05\/04\/academic-excellence\/75426\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Honoring Academic Excellence in County Public Housing Communities<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.randomlengthsnews.com\/archives\/author\/reporters-desk\" aria-label=\"author-photo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Reporters Desk\" src=\"https:\/\/www.randomlengthsnews.com\/wp-content\/gravatars\/4423105fcf1588d02b1568554d5e17f639bf27448d14d7b57aa48d7d8cee98a7\"  class=\"avatar avatar-96 photo cwvlazyload\" height=\"96\" width=\"96\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/a>   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"San Pedro Gateway Monument Sign Downtown San Pedro Gateway Monument Sign After several years of planning and design,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":303258,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[127954,908,97619,131,133,132],"class_list":["post-303257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-infrastructureupdates","tag-sanpedro","tag-cd15","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=303257"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303257\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/303258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=303257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=303257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
