The San Bernardino County Department of Public Works has completed the Needles Highway Segment 1B Project in the Needles Area. The Project was funded by Federal Public Lands Highways funds to improve the road condition within the heavily traveled two-lane link between California and Nevada. The Project consists of road improvements on Needles Highway, from 500 feet south of Park Road to one mile north. The improvements include asphalt reconstruction, shoulder backing, and placing pavement striping and markings. The Project aligns with the County and the Chief Executive Officer’s goals and objectives of providing for the safety, health and social service needs of County residents by improving the highway for the benefit of the traveling public.
