About District 2

  • District 2 is one of the original seven division offices within the California Department of Transportation. Founded in 1911, and headquartered in Redding, District 2 encompasses more than 27,000 square miles and all or part of nine counties. Seven northeastern counties are located within the district's boundaries, which include Lassen, Modoc, Plumas, Shasta, Siskiyou, Tehama, and Trinity. District 2 also services portions of Butte and Sierra Counties. The district is composed of terrain ranging from river valleys 200 feet above sea level to Mount Shasta rising to over 14,000 feet above sea level, from urban areas with populations above 125,000 to rural wilderness areas. These wide-ranging elements present District 2 varied and diverse challenges.
