  • Hello. I'm Will Kempton, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange
    Hello. I’m Will Kempton, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange County Transportation Authority. I am pleased and honored to share the 2009 OCTA Annual Report with you. In an effort to reduce paper costs and "go green," this year’s annual report has moved to an online format. We think you’ll enjoy its interactivity. As you are aware, 2009 was a challenging year for transportation funding. We faced obstacles that we never had before, and hopefully, never will again. In spite of these obstacles, OCTA made great strides improving our transportation network. Due to our efforts in 2009, the I-5 Gateway Project through Buena Park is nearing completion. As a shovel-ready project, the SR-91 Eastbound Lane Addition Project received federal stimulus dollars in the spring of last year under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act...and we broke ground in November. Our 34 cities and the county received a total of $78 million for local street and road improvements to reduce your commute time. As part of the Metrolink Service Expansion Program, design for track and infrastructure improvements was completed. We also finished final design for grade crossing safety enhancements, and construction began on projects in the cities of Orange and Anaheim. Conceptual design and environmental clearance are under way for ARTIC, Orange County’s premier transportation hub. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2011. With the loss of State Transit Assistance funding and declining sales tax revenues, it was an extremely challenging year for our bus system. In June, the OCTA Board of Directors declared a fiscal emergency resulting in significant bus service reductions that affected our customers and employees.

  • Historic Property Survey Report
    State of California Transportation Agency Department of Transportation HISTORIC PROPERTY SURVEY REPORT 1. UNDERTAKING DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION District County Route Post Mile(s) EA E-FIS Project Number 12 ORA 133 8.5/M9.3 0N8900 1214000130 The studies for this undertaking were carried out in a manner consistent with Caltrans’ regulatory responsibilities under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (36 CFR Part 800) and pursuant to the January 2014 First Amended Programmatic Agreement among the Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the California State Historic Preservation Officer, and the California Department of Transportation Regarding Compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (Section 106 PA), as well as under Public Resources Code 5024 and pursuant to the January 2015 Memorandum of Understanding Between the California Department of Transportation and the California State Historic Preservation Office Regarding Compliance with Public Resources Code Section 5024 and Governor’s Executive Order W-26-92 (5024 MOU) as applicable. Project Description: The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) proposes this project along the southbound stretch of State Route 133 (SR-133; Laguna Canyon Freeway) to add a lane from the southbound Interstate 5 (I-5) connector (Post Mile [PM] M9.3) to the northbound Interstate 405 (I-405) connector (PM 8.5). Project PM M9.3 is rounded up from the actual PM for project work (M9.23); as such, the bridge at Irvine Center Drive at PM M9.23 is not within the project limits. The proposed auxiliary lane will be the second lane on the northbound I-405 connector.

  • Open Primaries and Top Two Elections: Proposition 14 on California’S June 2010 Ballot
    Open Primaries and Top Two Elections: Proposition 14 on California’s June 2010 Ballot by Molly Milligan OPEN PRIMARIES AND TOP TWO ELECTIONS: PROPOSITION 14 ON CALIFORNIA’S JUNE 2010 BALLOT By Molly Milligan Center for Governmental Studies ForewordForewordForeword The Center for Governmental Studies (CGS) has studied California governance issues for more than 25 years. This study, “Open Primaries and Top Two Elections: Proposition 14 on California’s June 2010 Ballot,” began shortly after its provisions were passed by the Legislature as part of the budget deal on February 20, 2009. In a compromise that broke a stalemate that had persisted for six months, the Legislature gained the vote of Republican Senator Abel Maldonado to pass the budget (needed to achieve a two-thirds majority) in exchange for placing his proposal to change the election system in California on the June 2010 ballot. Maldonado’s proposal is now known as Proposition 14. It would require the use of open primaries in elections for state and most federal officials. Under such a system, a voter can vote for any candidate running for a particular office regardless of his or her party affiliation or that of the candidates; the top two vote getters in the primary, and no other candidates, contest a general election run off to determine the winner of each seat. CGS examined the possible electoral outcomes under such a system, using voter registration and participation data, and campaign finance information. We believe our study provides a fascinating snapshot of California voters in 2010 and presents valuable information to help voters determine how to vote on this important issue.

It is considered a bypass route to the Santa Ana/Golden State Fwy (I-5). Within Orange County, I-405 is a controlled access freeway with 8 to 12 mixed flow lanes and 2 High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes. Additionally, there are auxiliary lanes in selected portions of the route. These auxiliary lanes act as a safety/operational improvement by providing adequate weaving which, in turn, allows the through lanes to maintain their full design capacity. I-405 provides access between cities that are located in both Orange and Los Angeles Counties. It is used for commuting and inter-regional travel along with direct and indirect access to employment centers, recreational attractions, shopping malls, medical centers, universities, airports, etc. The average daily traffic (ADT) ranges from 153,000 just north of the I-5/I-405 interchange (El Toro Y) to 340,000 between the Garden Grove Fwy (SR-22, PM 20.75) and Los Alamitos Blvd (PM 22.64).
