There has been some re-grooving of the I-5 Freeway up by the Grapevine and bad reports are coming back regarding car tires being cut up and motorcycle tires shredded by the grooves. Someone messed up big-time. and motorcycles are loosing their ability to steer correctly once the tires are damaged. It would be a good piece of road to stay off of, until things are repaired. Cal Trans has been notified as of this morning, at (916) 227 - 7000.

I spoke to a man named Jose at Cal Trans in the area involved. He is aware of the road construction, said that the road is distressed and they are in the process of repaving that. Jose's phone number is ( 559 ) 488 - 4038. If anyone had damage done to a tire because of the construction conditions, the Cal Trans claims contact is : Jackie Reyes ( 559 ) 445 - 5358. They will repair this piece of contruction as soon as possible, but in the meantime be aware that route I-5 by the Grapevine is not in good shape.
