  • California Incline Project – Traffic Management Plan Update Updated: September 2, 2014
    City of Santa Monica Transportation Engineering & Management Division 1685 Main Street, Room 115 Santa Monica, CA 90401 California Incline Project – Traffic Management Plan Update Updated: September 2, 2014 Summary The demolition and reconstruction of the California Incline in Santa Monica is currently scheduled to begin in early 2015. Throughout the conceptual development and environmental study of the project, traffic congestion concerns and the requirements to manage and mitigate traffic congestion were at the forefront. The design for the project is currently in-progress, and a comprehensive traffic management plan is being developed. The traffic management plan consists of four core components: • Extensive deployment of traffic sensors and dynamic message boards to monitor real-time traffic conditions and provide real-time travel information. • Emphasis of detour routes to/from Downtown Santa Monica via the Moomat Ahiko ramp at Pacific Coast Highway and via the Lincoln Boulevard ramp at I-10. • Traffic counts will be collected at key locations immediately before and after the California Incline is closed in order to provide baseline traffic data. • Provision of as-needed traffic control devices and on-call support staff to address any congestion issues that occur, such as increased traffic in Santa Monica Canyon. Real-Time Traffic Monitoring and Information A total of 16 Bluetooth sensors and eight dynamic message boards will be deployed in key locations in order to monitor traffic conditions and report information to motorists in real-time, as shown on the figure below. One additional sensor may be deployed as-needed. Real-time information will also be transmitted to local news agencies, online travel applications, and in-vehicle navigation companies.
