In this Caltrans News Flash, Caltrans spokesman Jason Probst shows you how our crews remove a 20-ton boulder blocking the road on U.S. Highway 50, east of Kyburz. Trained crews conduct a traffic closure, set explosives, detonate the rock, then remove the debris while getting motorists moving again.
In our latest installment of the "On the Job with Caltrans" series, we focus on what it takes to keep state highways moving safely for travelers. Director Malcolm Dougherty shadowed Caltrans crews in Los Angeles and recognized the incredible work that the 6,000 men and women in the state's Division of Maintenance do when responding to emergencies, clearing snow, fixing guardrail and potholes, changing lightbulbs and keeping traffic signals operable -- in other words, ensuring motorists' safety!

This video was originally a slide show and script that was put together by a long time Caltrans employee, Structural Engineer Norman Root.
This was his history of Caltrans (aka State Highway Division of The Public Works Department of the State of California).
I was still new here at Caltrans in 1995 and was very impressed by Mr. Root's achievement. Slide shows had been the main stay of the department's outreach program since the early 1960's and I feel that Norman was using technology he was familiar with at the time.
I was on the cutting edge of Technology when I arrived here in District 7 Graphics Department, since I had a Beta SP Camera and a Video Toaster on the Amiga so I decided to "enhance" Norman's wonderful presentation.
I set up a slide projector in our old Room 12 Auditorium in the Basement of 120 South Spring Street and blew up the image so it filled the huge projection screen. Then taking a cue from Ken Burns (without the use of an animation stand) I panned, zoomed and animated the slides while holding the script in my hand for timing of the shots.
I hope you enjoy this throwback to an era not long gone, since this was made way before Caltrans acknowledged the internet, and digital video was a gleam in Apple's eye, this video has been sitting on my shelf for almost 20 years without a viewing and there are plenty more where this one came from.

Caltrans is installing retro-reflective signs which provide a double bonus for the public – they’re illuminated by motorists’ headlights, making them more visible than traditional signage, and don’t require electricity.

California Department of Transportation
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is an executive department within the U.S. state of California.
Caltrans manages the state highway system (which includes the California Freeway and Expressway System) and is actively involved with public transportation systems throughout the state. It supports Amtrak California and the Capitol Corridor.
The department is part of the state cabinet-level California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA).
Like the majority of state government agencies, Caltrans is headquartered in Sacramento.
History
The earliest predecessor of Caltrans was the Bureau of Highways, which was created by the California Legislature and signed into law by Governor James Budd in 1895. This agency consisted of three commissioners who were charged with analyzing the state road system and making recommendations. At the time, there was no state highway system, since roads were purely a local responsibility. California's roads consisted of crude dirt roads maintained by county governments, as well as some paved roads within city boundaries, and this ad hoc system was no longer adequate for the needs of the state's rapidly growing population. After the commissioners submitted their report to the governor on November 25, 1896, the legislature replaced the Bureau with the Department of Highways.

This video was originally a slide show and script that was put together by a long time Caltrans employee, Structural Engineer Norman Root.
This was his history of Caltrans (aka State Highway Division of The Public Works Department of the State of California).
I was still new here at Caltrans in 1995 and was very impressed by Mr. Root's achievement. Slide shows had been the main stay of the department's outreach program since the early 1960's and I feel that Norman was using technology he was familiar with at the time.
I was on the cutting edge of Technology when I arrived here in District 7 Graphics Department, since I had a Beta SP Camera and a Video Toaster on the Amiga so I decided to "enhance" Norman's wonderful presentation.
I set up a slide projector in our old Room 12 Auditorium in the Basement of 120 South Spring Street and blew up the image so it filled the huge projection screen. Then taking a cue from Ken Burns (without the use of an animation stand) I panned, zoomed and animated the slides while holding the script in my hand for timing of the shots.
I hope you enjoy this throwback to an era not long gone, since this was made way before Caltrans acknowledged the internet, and digital video was a gleam in Apple's eye, this video has been sitting on my shelf for almost 20 years without a viewing and there are plenty more where this one came from.
