The Pepper Avenue / I-10 interchange project is a regionally significant project, critical for
transportation circulation in the area. Pepper Avenue is a major north-south arterial in the
City, principally north of the freeway. The proposed improvements to Pepper Avenue / I-
10 interchange will allow for implementation of roadway improvements that will enhance traffic by
improving the level of service and will provide primary access for emergency services to the
Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, a regional trauma center.
