Description
A homeless encampment that started off on the shoulder of the I-5 in Chula Vista has grown to several on all sides of the freeway on and off ramps.
Drivers said they reported it to Caltrans, but nothing was done until they contacted CBS 8.
This week, CBS 8 has been Working for You and covered encampments on freeways and highways in Spring Valley and now there is another report of one in Chula Vista.
As drivers exit off Interstate 5 onto Palomar Street in Chula Vista, in any direction they will see encampments on all the on and off ramps.
“I believe that this is a great embarrassment to the City of Chula Vista,” said Manuel Lopez.
He lives in Chula Vista and says for the past year, the encampments have grown which has created trash, piles of debris and hazards in the roadway.
