The Public is encouraged to attend and to share their input.
Mission Viejo Toll Road Open House is at 5:00pm-8:00pm.
Mission Viejo is hosting a Toll Road Open House to provide South Orange County residents on an update to the South County Traffic Relief Effort conducted by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 12, in cooperation with the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency (F/ETCA), part of the Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA).
The Public is encouraged to attend a “Toll Road Open House” which is part of the public scoping process.
The Public Scoping Process allows the TCA and Cal Trans to garner public input on the proposed project’s preliminary Purpose and Need and the current range of preliminary alternatives to be studied.
These meetings will be held in an open house style format with no formal presentation, so attendees may arrive at any time during the event hours.
