Project Status

The road ahead.

The Connector has delivered 11 miles of regional expressway and leveraged more than $230 million in public investment to date. Completing the remaining 23 miles requires closing a $460 million funding gap and navigating persistent challenges around regional planning, multi-jurisdictional coordination, and shifting costs. Here's how the JPA is responding, and what's ready to build the moment funding lands.
