Interstate 405 Update: Public Engagement on Express Lanes Alternatives

The Interstate 405 Update presentation addresses public perceptions and provides crucial information regarding express lanes. We aim to answer frequently asked questions and outline all alternatives being considered, including a no-build option and three equally viable build alternatives. An extended public comment period is in place from May 18 to July 17, allowing community input on the project. Your feedback is important to shaping the future of Interstate 405.

  6. Clarifying Alternatives Westminster parking impacts: Same in Alt 1, 2, 3 Number of full business acquisitions: Same in Alt 1, 2, 3 Structures / bridges: Bolsa Chica to Euclid: Same in Alt 1, 2, 3 Harbor, Fairview, SR-73 connector: Alt 3 only Air quality: No build – Worst Alt 1 – Better Alts 2 & 3 – Best
  7. Express Lanes: Perceptions & Questions Perceptions: 91 Express Lanes aren’t used, don’t work Toll facility revenues don’t cover costs Questions: How are the 91 Express Lanes operated? Why is throughput different in free flow versus congested conditions? How would the ingress/egress work for the I-405?
  8. How Congestion Impacts Throughput
  9. Successful toll facility Grown from 5.7 M trips in 1996 to 11.6 M trips in 2012 Generates sufficient amount of tolls revenue to pay for operations, maintenance, debt service expenses Invested about $14 million in excess toll revenues in other SR-91 corridor projects to relieve congestion Uses congestion management pricing Goal is to maintain free flow speeds and optimize throughput Toll levels set to match relative traffic levels Tolls vary by time of day, day of week, direction of travel Automatic trigger points used to adjust tolls up/down
  10. 91 Corridor Traffic Patterns Eastbound Westbound
  11. 91 Express LanesTraffic and Revenue 1995 to 2010
  12. Interstate 405
  13. I-405 NB Volumes Average Mon‐Thurs Total Northbound Volume
  14. I-405 NB Speeds 3 - 7PM 6 - 9AM 73 Brookhurst Beach 22 605
  15. Proposed Access Points I-605 / I-405 SR-22 Bolsa/Goldenwest Magnolia/Warner I-405 / SR-73
  16. Projected Revenue Covers Costs Using the 91 Express Lanes model: Congestion management pricing HOV3+ free I-405 Express Lanes revenue would cover capital, operations, maintenance, debt service Potential surplus for additional transportation congestion relief, generally within the corridor
  17. Next Steps Public Review Period May 18 - July 17 Key Findings to Board July 23 Outreach Update I-405 Focus Groups Critical Path (All Alternatives) Program Management – Release RFP July 23 Outreach Consultant – Release RFP July 23 I-405 Options for Board Consideration Aug 13 I-405 Board Locally Preferred Option Sept 24 Final EIR / EIS Spring 2013
