• Fix 5: A Partnership - Easing Congestion on the I-5 Corridor - Link to Fix 5 Website

Congestion on Interstate 5 (I-5) through our region is growing at a rate of 10% per year, while funding has not increased. I-5 is projected to fail within the next 10 years, meaning we will experience stop-and-go traffic in the morning and evening commute hours on our freeway system.

Meetings have started with local regional planning agencies, city councils, board of supervisors, city managers, and county administrative officers of the jurisdictions along I-5 in Shasta and Tehama counties. The focus of these meetings is to develop a consensus that a regional study is needed to look at capacity improvements along I-5, and develop a fair-share revenue program. There is unanimous support in moving forward with this study.

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 2 hosted a number of public workshops regarding the I-5 TCR from September 2003-November 2003. The purpose of these workshops was to provide the public the opportunity to discuss the future needs and development opportunities of I-5.

Some of the issues addressed during the workshops included traffic conditions, population trends, community demographics, land use, transportation of goods, environmental issues, transit services and bicycle and pedestrian facilities.

299/44/36/395 Focus Route Corridor Management Plan (Draft)

This CMP was prepared in response to The Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006, approved by the voters as Proposition 1B on November 7, 2006. The CMP emphasizes cross-jurisdictional management, managing the corridor as a whole through coordination with all agencies. The document encourages a shared commitment to seek compatible values that nurture economic growth by meeting long-term capacity needs, while maintaining balance with quality of life. It suggests management of major local arterials in coordination with the State highway system to achieve maximum mobility along the corridor.
