GILROY—U.S. 101 on-ramp meters in Gilroy and Morgan Hill installed earlier this year will be activated in mid-October, according to officials with the California Department of Transportation. It’s part of an $18 million effort to manage traffic bottlenecks on freeways throughout the region during peak commuting hours.
A San Jose man and his passenger narrowly escaped serious injury on the U.S. 101 after a hit-and-run driver caused their car to crash into a semi-trailer truck Monday.
