The following is being presented to the MTA's Planning and Programming Committee at their meeting on June 19th:

"CONSIDER supporting the recommendations of the US-101 Corridor Study Steering Committee and directing staff to take the following implementing actions:

          A.      include the potential short and mid-range mobility
          improvement projects in the appropriate subregional section(s) of
          the MTA Short Range Transportation Plan (SRTP) subject to further
          community review and refinement, and modification by the affected
          agencies.  Assist the sponsoring agencies in seeking funds for
          those projects through future MTA Call for Projects and other
          funding programs;

          B.      include analysis of the US-101 freeway as a "Congested
          Corridor" in the next update of the MTA SRTP;

          C.      continue to include the US-101 freeway improvements in
          the Strategic Element of the MTA Long Range Transportation Plan
          so that a long-range multi-modal transportation vision, including
          transit options, can be better defined and funded; and

          D.      support Countywide and regional inter-agency coordination
          efforts in pursuit of innovative land use policies that would
          effectively promote smart growth, prevent and mitigate traffic
          congestion, and improve quality of life in Los Angeles County."
