Long awaited 19th Ave interchange over Hwy 198 will break ground in coming weeks in Lemoore.The $21 million half clover-leaf project will require 2 years to build with a contract awarded to Granite Construction. The interchange will be the only one on Hwy 198 and tie the rest of the city to its industrial area. The project has been in the planning stages since 1958, about when the navy bases was being built.
The surrounding land on the south side is considered prime for freeway commercial.
