Placer Parkway is a planned 14.3 miles long high-speed, limited access roadway from SR 70/99 at the current Sankey Road/SR 70/99 intersection, proceeding east and northeast connecting to SR 65 at Whitney Ranch Parkway.   Access would be provided at the western and eastern ends of the Parkway, where existing areas of dense development are already located or planned.  Access would be restricted for the 7-mile segment between Pleasant Grove Road and Fiddyment Road.  Interchanges are planned at the following locations:

• SR 65 at Whitney Ranch Parkway

• Foothills Boulevard

• Fiddyment Road

• One or two locations to be determined in southern Sutter County

• SR 70/99  at Sankey Road

Document related to approval of the corridor alignment can be found here.

The Parkway is anticipated to be designed and constructed incrementally in segments.  These could be built as a four-lane (interim) roadway until a six-lane segment is warranted, or as the full six-lane facility. 

Phase I of Placer Parkway will extend from State Route (SR) 65/Whitney Ranch with the construction of a new roadway to the west, connecting to Foothills Boulevard North. Phase 1 work is being lead by Placer County Public Works and is nearing design completion. More details on Phase 1 are available on Placer County Public Works' website here.
