Connect the Coastside

Connect the Coastside (CTC) Transportation Plan is a County project required to by the 2012 Local Coastal Program update to provide a Comprehensive Transportation Management Plan (CTMP) and to provide a broad program to improve safety and mobility for Midcoast residents, businesses and visitors. First started in 2014, the CTC will extend the findings of the Highway 1 Safety and Mobility Studies (Phase 1 and Phase 2) completed in 2012.

Next Steps – SMC Planning Department

In January 2020, a public draft was released for review. Read the executive summary of the public working draft. After an extended period with surveys, public meetings and updates to the MCC, the SMC Planning Department provided a document (CTC Outreach Summary Report) reflecting the community input it received and framing next steps.  The document contains a six page summary and seven appendices.

A slide overview presentation was made at the September 23, 2020, MCC meeting, discussing key items of the report and identifying next steps before CTC goes through final County review and is submitted to the California Coast Commission for certification.

For questions about this project, please contact: Joe LaClair, jlaclair@smcgov.org, 650-363-1865, or Katie Faulkner, kfaulkner@smcgov.org, 650-363-1882

Next Steps – MCC
