Leading change today for tomorrow’s mobility

Funded primarily by Measure M, transportation improvements to our freeways keep commuters and goods moving within Orange County and to destinations beyond. With Orange County’s population projected to increase dramatically by 2030, change is needed today to ensure tomorrow’s mobility. That’s why OCTA took action during the year, expediting many Measure M2 freeway improvement projects and beginning construction on others. To help with this effort, OCTA also initiated the development of an M2020 Plan during the fiscal year that represents a blueprint for continued advancement of M2-funded projects from 2013 through 2020.

Motorist Services
Motorist Services OCTA helped keep traffic moving with a variety of motorist services. Stranded motorists along Orange County freeways and highways were able to summon help using OCTA’s solar-powered call boxes. Many of those motorists received aid free of charge from the Freeway Service Patrol’s (FSP) fleet of dedicated tow trucks. Closer to home, the Service Authority for Abandoned Vehicles (SAAV) removed abandoned vehicles from our streets.

OCTA also handled the regulation of taxicab companies, drivers and vehicles through the Orange County Taxicab Administration Program (OCTAP).
