Corona, CA: Foothill Parkway extension project delayed

In an effort to push a much-delayed Corona road extension project forward, city officials may temporarily downsize it.

Corona planning officials are in the final stages this month of acquiring land for the 2-mile Foothill Parkway extension project that would connect Skyline Drive and Paseo Grande from south Corona to Sierra del Oro.

The project has been envisioned since the mid-1980s, but has been postponed repeatedly because of a lack of funding.
