LANDMARK DECISION OPENS ROAD FOR COMPLETION OF SR 241/I-5 CONNECTION IN SOUTH ORANGE COUNTY

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 10, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orange County Business Council commends today's momentous agreement to end 15 years of dispute and litigation over the SR 241 Toll Road Extension. The decision between Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA), California Attorney General Kamala Harris, the Save San Onofre Coalition, the California Park and Recreation Commission and the Native American Heritage Commission presents an opportunity for TCA to consider a number of transportation project ideas— including completion of the State Route 241–Interstate 5 connection while protecting sensitive lands and cultural resources within the San Mateo Creek watershed, including San Onofre State Beach and the Richard and Donna O'Neill Conservancy.

"Congratulations to all for their hard work and dedication. To move forward after decades of litigation on real traffic relief solutions for South Orange County while protecting its environmental treasures including Trestles, San Onofre State Park, sacred sites, endangered species habitat and open space is truly momentous," said Lucy Dunn, president and CEO, OCBC. "OCBC strives to enhance the economic vitality of Orange County and this partnership is a move in the right direction; building a strong economy, enhancing mobility for people and goods, and providing real environmental protections are mutually beneficial to a thriving Orange County.  OCBC will remain actively engaged to realize these goals as the settlement is implemented."
