Alternate routes to Taft College during construction


This is from the CHP-Buttonwillow Facebook page on 5/1/2019. The information is subject to change and will be updated as necessary.

SR-119/SR-43 ROUNDABOUT UPDATE
Construction is expected to start May 5th or 6th with one way traffic control, EXPECT DELAYS. Approximately 2 weeks after that Highway 43 will be closed between Highway 119 and just south of the KCRP racetrack. That portion will remain closed during the year-long project. In addition to that, the Lightning In A Bottle Festival will be going on in the area at Buena Vista Lake from May 8-13 with an estimated 25,000 people. You might want to definitely avoid the area and take an alternate route.

The Campus Safety and Security department has developed a couple of alternate routes for your consideration that avoid the construction area. You can see the photos below or download a two-page .pdf file by clicking here (PDF).
