Blueprint Planning
The essence of regional blueprint planning is to communicate regional consensus. The Wild Rivers Region has the rights of self-determination, and by virtue of those rights we are freely pursuing our economic, social and cultural development within the laws of the State. We are influencing our own future, which has been encouraged by the California Department of Transportation through Blueprint Planning.

REGIONAL TOPICS
Highway 197/199 Caltrans Safety Analysis
A safety analysis was performed for the proposed STAA truck routes in Del Norte County on Routes 197 and 199. Use the links below to read the report and review the associated map.
Highway 197/199 STAA Route Compliance
The transportation industry has adopted Surface Transportation Assistance Act (STAA) trucking as the universal standard of shipping. Highway 197/199 is our sole direct interregional and interstate route and a number of locations along the California section of the roadway are too narrow and curvilinear to allow the use of STAA trucks. Accordingly, Del Norte County is working to address these issues and provide a viable trade corridor for the movement of goods and people. Use the link below to see a map of identified construction projects.
