Traffic Blues?  Help Arrives from Measure M & OrangeCountyResourceGuide.com

In spite of having the state divert many transportation dollars (intended for local road improvement) to the general fund, OC is in better shape due to Measure M assuring those dollars stay here. Mission Viejo puts its portion of the Measure M funds to great use:   Crown Valley Parkway, a major east-west arterial route, has been widened by one additional lane in each direction.  Additional turn lanes were constructed at 3 intersections.  These improvements were essential as Crown Valley’s current vehicle usage of 78,000 vehicles a day is expected to grow to 89,000 a day as more people are choosing to make South OC their home.  Additional traffic projects include traffic signal coordination on Oso Parkway. 

Whether heading off to a productive day of work, or a productive day of play, traffic flow is always an issue for South County residents. To check on "real time" traffic conditions, visit http://www.OrangeCountyResourceGuide.com/oc-traffic-conditions.html and make your travel time more efficient.
