Document Description
The project intends to reduce inter-regional commute traffic on Highway 1, expand the region’s alternative transportation options, improve overall mobility for residents and visitors, reduce mobile source and greenhouse gas emissions, and provide connectivity to commercial, education medical land uses, as well as regional bicycle and pedestrian trail systems.
The project would upgrade existing intersection traffic and safety controls, as well as bicycle and pedestrian path improvements; construct busway lanes and necessary improvements within the TAMC Monterey Branch Line right-of-way; construct a new transit station and other amenities on MST property near 5th Street east of Highway 1; construct a new roundabout in the public right of way at California Avenue and Highway 1 southbound ramp in Sand City; and construction a stop at Playa Avenue in Sand City where SURF! riders could connect to the existing bus network.
