Caltrans to Host Virtual Workshop on SR-138 Safety Improvements in Littlerock Area

PALMDALE, CA — Caltrans District 7 is inviting Antelope Valley residents to learn about upcoming safety upgrades along Pearblossom Highway during a virtual community workshop next month.

The workshop for the State Route 138 Multimodal Mobility Improvements Project – Segment 4 will be held on Thursday, September 10, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Microsoft Teams.

What’s Proposed for SR-138

Caltrans is proposing multimodal safety improvements along SR-138 between Avenue T in Palmdale and SR-18 in Llano. The Segment 4 improvements are part of the larger 14-segment SR-138 Corridor program.

Planned upgrades include:

ADA-compliant curb ramps to improve accessibility

The goal, Caltrans says, is to enhance safety and accessibility for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and all roadway users in the Littlerock and Llano communities.
