Recommended Preferred Strategy
Two Bus/Carpool Lanes + One Mixed Flow Lane
+ Bus/Rail and Street Improvements - Near- and mid-range improvements
to arterials, bus/rail transit and freeway, with a long-range concept to
add one regular lane in four-lane segment between Moorpark Road and
Topanga Canyon Boulevard and two bus/carpool lanes in each direction from
State Route 23 in Thousand Oaks to State Route 134 in Studio City. All
improvements would be at-grade. Defer selection of a long-range solution
between SR 134 & SR 110 and instead, “revisit” this segment as part
of another study, which is needed to address cumulative traffic congestion
problems within, and around, the Downtown area.

Technical Advisory Committee Recommends Preferred
Strategy of Near, Mid, and Long-Range Improvements for the US 101 Freeway
Corridor
On April 29th, the Study reached a major milestone,
when the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) recommended a Preferred Strategy
of near, mid, and long-range improvements. This was the culmination
of nearly two years of study, starting in July 2001 when the Study Team
narrowed the universe of possible improvements to more than 50 initial
concepts. In April 2002, the Study Team and its TAC and Steering
Committee (SC) refined those initial concepts to 12 Feasible Strategies,
which they narrowed down to five Screened Strategies in July 2002.
The public has been actively involved along the way, providing information
and feedback used by the Study Team, TAC and SC in deciding how to refine
the strategies under consideration.
The TAC’s recommended Preferred Strategy will
be brought to the public this month, before it goes to the Steering Committee
for final approval. This round of community outreach will provide
stakeholders the opportunity to review the TAC recommendation and provide
feedback, which will be given to the SC when they meet on May 23 to decide
on the final Preferred Strategy. This feedback will also be provided
to the MTA, SCAG, and local transportation agencies, to be used when they
take up this issue and decide whether to adopt the final Preferred Strategy
as part of their transportation plans.

Aerial Maps of US 101 Corridor
These maps may take some time to down load. Please
be patient as they are very large detailed PDF files.
The boundaries defined by these right-of-way
aerials are more specific than those previously posted on this site. In
that respect, the boundaries indicate fewer properties that would be required
to build out the Preferred Strategy than previous strategies with wider
scopes. All the same, the boundaries represent the worst-case scenario,
assuming the Preferred Strategy would be realized in its entirety.
