Arrowhead Drive & 7th Avenue Improvement
Earlier this month, we started our project to reconstruct the two-mile stretch of Arrowhead Drive & 7th Avenue between Green Tree Boulevard and Bear Valley Road. In addition to reconstructing the road, we will be adding sidewalks and ramps, improving drainage, and adding bike lanes. This project is expected to take six months to complete. Currently, crews are working on Arrowhead Drive between Yates Road and Nisqualli Road.
Please use alternate routes and use extreme caution when traveling near the construction zone.

New Police Personnel and Code Enforcement Officers
Recently, we expanded our police personnel with the addition of five sheriff’s service specialists and one crime analyst thanks to revenue generated by Measure P. These newly added police personnel join the five sheriff's deputies we added last year to help solve crime, provide traffic enforcement, and improve 9-1-1 response times.
We also added five new code enforcement officers to help address community concerns of illegal dumping, blight, and other nuisance behaviors.
Learn more about Measure P at VictorvilleCA.gov/MeasureP.
