Posted in Projects

At its March meeting, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) approved funding to improve and maintain California’s multimodal transportation system.  According to the District 2 Press Release, allocations included:

  • $12.5 million for 11 capital improvement projects both on and off the state highway system as part of the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP),
  • $17.8 million for two Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program projects, and
  • $15.5 million for 22 Active Transportation Program projects - the most recent active transportation investment from the largest program of its kind in the nation.

The allocations included funds for traditional road projects as well as regional planning but also included money for a number of alternative transportation projects, such as bike lanes and pedestrian safety enhancements.  Some highlights include:

  • Butte County: $1.4 million to the county to construct Class II bike lanes on Neal Road and Cohasset Road.
  • Sacramento County: $1.5 million to the county to construct sidewalks, bike lanes and signal upgrades on Howe Avenue.
  • San Mateo County: $5,570,000 to install pedestrian crosswalk safety enhancements on State Highways 82 and 84.
