Out of curiosity, are there any plans to upgrade the entire stretch from Bakersfield to I-40 to freeway standards, or even possibly making it an extension of I-40? If it were to be a future I-40, could it be extended even further to end at I-5?
See this thread I started on this board...

Hinkley Bypass is going out to bid soon. Kramer Junction Bypass should be out to bid in about a year. Both projects call for a 4-lane expressway (vs a 4-lane freeway... a big difference in California).
I don't know how I missed that. Thanks. The mods have my permission to delete this thread.
