This work occurred mainly in Rialto, plus a small section of Fontana. Milestones included:
- Construction of freeway bridges at Alder Avenue, Locust Avenue, Linden Avenue, Ayala Drive and Riverside Avenue.
- Construction of the Cactus Channel storm drain system, designed to prevent freeway flooding and improve drainage on local streets.
- Construction of nine sound walls – four north of Highland Avenue and five south of Highland Avenue. These walls will mitigate future freeway noise and will have the added benefit of reducing noise from construction activity.
- Improvements to local storm drain systems along the freeway corridor, particularly near Riverside Avenue and Highland Avenue.
- Extension of Casmalia Street and Easton Street to improve east-west travel through the area.
- Widening and the installation of new traffic signals along Baseline, Ayala Drive and Riverside Avenue to prepare for the detour of vehicles from Highland Avenue during the second stage of construction.
- Paving of freeway lanes between Sierra Avenue and Linden Avenue.
