Overview
After nearly 18 months of study, recommendations for the locally preferred
strategy for the Riverside County - Orange County Major Investment Study are
presented for Committee review and approval.
Recommendations
A. Establish the Riverside Freeway (State Route 91) from the Costa Mesa
Freeway (State Route 55) to the Corona Freeway (Interstate 15) as a
priority for improving transportation between Riverside and Orange
counties. Emphasize State Route 91 (SR-91) improvements between
Eastern Toll Road (State Route 241) and Interstate 15 (1-15) first followed
by improvements between State Route 55 (SR-55) and State Route 241
(SR 241).
B. Continue to work with the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency
to develop a mutually acceptable plan to improve the connection between
the SR-241 and SR-91 corridors and accelerate capacity improvements
on Laguna Canyon Road (State Route 133), SR-241, and Eastern Toll
Road (State Route 261) to optimize utilization of the toll roads to improve
transportation between Riverside and Orange counties.
