OCTA issued its annual call for projects aimed at improving traffic flow and reducing congestion throughout Orange County.

This is a fixed-scope program which provides funding for passenger amenities at the 100 busiest bus stops in Orange County determined by average daily weekday passenger boardings.

Developed in conjunction with the California State Transportation Agency to represent projects from all parts of the state, the list includes planned improvements to freeways, transit systems, bridges, ports and levees, among other infrastructure.

Program funds will be allocated on a countywide competitive basis to assist jurisdictions in meeting the Clean Water Act for controlling transportation-generated pollution. The funds are designed to supplement, not supplant, existing transportation-related water quality programs.

Selected projects are highlighted here, some with before and after photos that depict major improvements. OC Go also helps OCTA, the county’s transportation agency, leverage state and federal money to make improvements.

The CTFP was created to provide a common set of guidelines and project selection criteria for a variety of funding programs, establishing a simplified and consistent process.
