"There are less than 300 days of construction until the 'New 22' is   
completed and we see a safer, faster, easier commute. It's exciting."

Improved Metropolitan Drive and new City Drive on- and off-ramps are now open!
 
That's right! The improved and highly-anticipated Metropolitan Drive and The City Drive on- and off-ramps near The Block at Orange opened last month.

Metropolitan Drive in Orange opened on Saturday, January 14 to two lanes in each direction. Metropolitan Drive, which runs along the south side of The Block at Orange, has been reconfigured as part of the Garden Grove Freeway (SR-22) Improvement Project.

Additionally, everyone from workers to shoppers to residents commuting near The Block at Orange will now also enjoy newly reconfigured on- and off-ramps at The City Drive. Motorists access these new ramps from Metropolitan Drive, rather than The City Drive.
