www.cahighways.org	California Highways 2010 Changes   powered by FreeFind

• November/December 2010:

  We've come to the end of another year. This year saw (less by conscious decision than happenstance) this website move to bimonthly updates. It also saw some major construction projects begin (such as the reshaping of the Sepulveda Pass), some signficant completions (such as the tunnelling at Devil's Slide), and loads of maintenance thanks to stimulus funds. It also saw the further decline of misc.transport.road into uselessness, and the growth of Facebook as a communication medium. Speaking of that, if you haven't friended the California Highways Facebook group, you should. I've set it up to get the regular Metro.Net headline posting, and I regularly highlight any highway related articles I find on the net. It is also your place to share news about California Highways, and I pick up that news from there for these updates. So join!

  The following are updates from my reading of the papers (which are posted to California Highways Facebook group) as well as any backed up email changes. I also reviewed the the AAroads forum and misc.transport.road. This resulted in changes on the following routes, with credit as indicated [my research⁽¹⁾, contributions of information or leads (via direct mail or Usenet) from ]:Route 17⁽¹⁾, Route 20⁽¹⁾, Route 57⁽¹⁾, Route 60⁽¹⁾, Route 91⁽¹⁾, US 101⁽¹⁾, I-5⁽¹⁾, I-10⁽¹⁾, I-80⁽¹⁾, I-110⁽¹⁾, I-380 [Southern Crossing]⁽¹⁾, I-405⁽¹⁾, I-580⁽¹⁾, I-710[Gerald Desmond Bridge]⁽¹⁾, I-880⁽¹⁾, Los Angeles County Route N3 [Angeles Forest Highway]⁽¹⁾.

  Noted an interesting article from Metro.Net that, alas, doesn't quite fit into any specific highway page nor other pages I have on the site. This article reported on a study exploring the feasibility of conversion of existing HOV lanes in Southern California to HOT lanes. The study had the following key findings:

  Constructability: Route 60 (Brea Canyon Road to Azusa Avenue) rated the highest for ease of constructability. Others rated high for ease of construction were I-105, Route 14, and Route 57. These facilities have the preponderance of standard land and shoulder widths, available right-of-way, flat topography, at-grade segments, and minimal interference with utilities and rights-of-way. Five HOV facilities rated medium in this category: I-5, I-210, I-405 north of LAX, I-405 South, and Route 60 (Route 57-Route 71).

  Revenue Potential: I-405 North of LAX rated the highest for revenue generating potential. Four HOV facilities were rated medium in this category: I-105, I-210, Route 14, and Route 91.

  Connectivity: I-605 rated the highest in this category, followed by I-5, and I-105.

  Transit Benefits: I-5 rated the highest in this category, followed by I-10, and I-405 north of LAX.

  Based on the Study findings, the following HOV facilities appeared to demonstrate comparatively strong potential for HOT conversion and were recommended for further assessment in the event additional studies are undertaken in Los Angeles County: (1) I-105, from I-405 to I-605; (2) I-405, from I-105 to I-5 north of LAX; (3) Route 91, from I-110 to the Orange County Line; (4) Route 57, from Route 60 to the Orange County Line. Additional consideration was also felt to be warranted for I-10 between I-605 and the San Bernardino County Line.

  Another interesting article of note is this one from the Sacramento Bee, which explores the increasing use of auxilliary lanes on Sacramento freeways. Aux lanes are short-distance lanes that run from an onramp to the next offramp. They don't require environmental studies. Caltrans is now linking up series of lanes in Sacramento to improve traffic flow at lower cost. Caltrans currently wants to link several auxiliary lanes on I-80 in Roseville and create similar linkages on Route 99 in south Sacramento.

  Checked the Calnexus page to see if there had been any updates. There weren't any.

• September/October 2010:

  I seem to do these things at the end of the month, don't I? Last one was Labor Day for July/August, and here it is early November for September/October. So let's get to it before December starts.

  The following are updates from my reading of the papers (which are posted to California Highways Facebook group) as well as any backed up email changes. I also reviewed the the AAroads forum and misc.transport.road. This resulted in changes on the following routes, with credit as indicated [my research⁽¹⁾, contributions of information or leads (via direct mail or Usenet) from Robert Bregoff⁽²⁾, Patrick Carroll⁽³⁾, Amar Chaudhary⁽⁴⁾, Paul D. DeRocco⁽⁵⁾, Alan Mintz⁽⁶⁾, Chris Sampang⁽⁷⁾]:Route 1^(1,3), Route 2⁽¹⁾, Route 4⁽¹⁾, Route 14⁽⁶⁾, Route 29⁽²⁾, Route 47⁽⁷⁾, Route 60⁽¹⁾, Route 77⁽⁴⁾, Route 84⁽¹⁾, Route 91⁽¹⁾, Route 110⁽¹⁾, Route 138 (High Desert Corridor)⁽¹⁾, Route 238⁽¹⁾, US 101⁽¹⁾, US 395⁽⁵⁾, I-5⁽¹⁾, I-10⁽¹⁾, I-210⁽¹⁾, I-405⁽¹⁾, I-680⁽¹⁾, and I-710 (Gerald Desmond Bridge)⁽¹⁾.

  Noted the following article, which has some interesting information but really doesn't fit well into the site as currently laid out: Grading the Freeways. This article talks about recent reports in Southern California on freeway congestion, and provides rankings of all the routes in terms of congestion and level of service. Some points highlighted are:

  • Half of the freeway system operates at LOS E and F, the two most congested levels, in the morning and afternoon rush hours. Almost 20% of the arterial intersections operate at LOS E and F in the morning rush hours, and just over 20% of the intersections operate at LOS E and F in the afternoon.

  • Freeway monitoring data indicates a highly complex travel pattern for Los Angeles County, with many freeway segments experiencing congestion in both directions during the morning and afternoon rush hours. This differs from the traditional suburban to a central downtown commute patterns.

  • Some Los Angeles County freeways experience heavy congestion in both directions during peak periods. These include: the Santa Monica Freeway (Route 10) between the East LA Interchange and the San Diego Freeway (Route 405); the Golden State Freeway (Route 5) between the Glendale Freeway (Route 2) and the Hollywood Freeway (Route 170); and the Santa Ana Freeway (Route 5) between Lakewood Boulevard (Route 19) and the Orange County line.

  Thanks to Robert Bregoff, noted the System Planning Documents for District 4 of Caltrans. I haven't had the time to go through them in detail, but they contain both the Transportation Corridor Concept Reports (TCCR), which provide a specific "highway operation concept configuration" for the year 2025, and the Route Concept Reports (RCR), which define the 20-year concept for route development from 1985-2005. They also contain the analysis for relinquishment of routes.

  Checked the Calnexus page to see if there had been any updates. There weren't any.

  Reviewed the Pending Legislation page. Noted the passage/veto of the following:

  • AB 619 (Blumenfield) Transportation projects: federal funds: delays.
    Existing law, the California High-Speed Rail Act, creates the High-Speed Rail Authority to develop and implement a high-speed train system in the state, with specified powers and duties. Existing law gives the authority the power to, among other things, enter into contracts with private or public entities for the design, construction, and operation of high-speed trains. Existing law, the Safe, Reliable, High-Speed Passenger Train Bond Act for the 21st Century, approved by the voters as Proposition 1A at the November 4, 2008, general election, provides for the issuance of $9.95 billion in general obligation bonds for high-speed rail and related purposes. This bill would require any entity applying for a contract with the authority for goods or services related to the high-speed train network, as specified, to affirmatively certify whether it had any direct involvement in the deportation of any individuals to extermination camps, work camps, concentration camps, prisoner of war camps, or any similar camps between specified dates during World War II. The bill would also require the authority to acknowledge and note the importance of complying with this certification, as provided.
    VETOED 9/30/10

  • AB 1670 (Beall) State Highway Routes 82 and 130: relinquishment.

  • AB 1871 (Jones) Private Passenger motor vehicle insurance coverage: personal vehicle sharing.
    This bill would prohibit a private passenger motor vehicle, as defined, from being classified for insurance purposes as a commercial, for-hire, or permissive use vehicle, or livery solely on the basis of it being used for personal vehicle sharing, as defined, if the annual revenue received by the vehicle's owner that is generated by personal vehicle sharing does not exceed the annual expenses of operating the vehicle, including, but not limited to, depreciation, interest, lease payments, auto loan payments, insurance, maintenance, and fuel, and the personal vehicle sharing is conducted pursuant to a personal vehicle sharing program. The bill would define a personal vehicle sharing program as a legal entity qualified to do business in the state that facilitates personal vehicle sharing, as specified. The bill would require a personal vehicle sharing program, among other things, during all times that the vehicle is engaged in personal vehicle sharing, to provide insurance coverage, as specified, and collect, maintain, and make available to the vehicle owner and the vehicle owner's primary automobile liability insurer verifiable electronic records identifying the date, time, initial and final locations of the vehicle, and miles driven when it is being used as part of the personal vehicle sharing program. The bill would limit the circumstances under which the vehicle owner's autmobile liability insurance can be subject to liability, and require that automobile insurance policies not be canceled, voided, terminated, rescinded, or nonrenewed on the basis that the private passenger motor vehicle has been made available for personal vehicle sharing. The bill would authorize the insurer of the vehicle to exclude any and all coverage afforded under the vehicle owner's automobile insurance policy while the vehicle is used by a person other than the owner as part of a personal vehicle sharing program.
    CHAPTERED 9/29/10. Chapter 454.

  • AB 1944 (Fletcher) Vehicles: special license plates: disabled veterans.
    Under existing law, the Department of Motor Vehicles is required, upon application and without additional fees, to issue a special license plate or plates to a disabled person, a disabled veteran, or an organization or agency involved in the transportation of those persons pursuant to procedures adopted by the department. Existing law requires the department, prior to issuing a special license plate to a disabled person or disabled veteran, to require the submission of a certificate signed by a medical professional, as provided, that substantiates the disability of the person or veteran, in certain situations. This bill, in addition, would require the department to accept, in lieu of the certificate signed by a medical professional, a certificate from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs that certifies the applicant is a disabled veteran. Existing law authorizes a disabled person or veteran to apply to the department for the issuance of a distinguishing placard to be used in lieu of the special license plate. Existing law requires the department, prior to issuing the placard to a disabled person or disabled veteran, to require the submission of a certificate signed by a medical professional, as provided, that substantiates the disability of the person or veteran, in certain situations. This bill, in addition, would require the department to accept, in lieu of the certificate signed by a medical professional, a certificate from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs that certifies the applicant is a disabled veteran. This bill would incorporate changes in Section 5007 of the Vehicle Code proposed by AB 2777 that would become operative only if both bills are enacted and this bill is enacted after AB 2777. This bill would also incorporate additional changes in Section 22511.55 of the Vehicle Code proposed by AB 1855, or SB 1318, or both, to be operative only if AB 1855, or SB 1318, or both, and this bill are chaptered and become effective on or before January 1, 2011, and this bill is chaptered last.

    CHAPTERED 9/29/10. Chapter 499.

  • SB 1318 (Numerous Senators) Transportation.
    (1) Existing law establishes the State Highway System and designates state highway routes from Route 1 to Route 905, unless otherwise specified by name, and authorizes the California Transportation Commission to relinquish all or a portion of designated state highway routes to specified local agencies if certain conditions are met. Portions of state highways that have been relinquished are not state highways and become ineligible for future adoption as a part of the State Highway System. This bill would acknowledge the relinquishment of, and designate or make technical changes to, specific portions of Route 1, Route 2, Route 19, Route 39, Route 71, Route 72, Route 74, Route 79, Route 83, Route 84, Route 111, Route 144, Route 151, Route 160, Route 164, Route 170, Route 260, and Route 275. Existing law authorizes the commission to relinquish to the City of Bakersfield or the County of Kern the portion of Route 58 that is located within the city limits of the City of Bakersfield under certain conditions. This bill would authorize the relinquishment to the City of Bakersfield and the County of Kern those portions of Route 58 located within their respective jurisdictions under certain conditions.
    (many numerous other provisions, the most amusing of which is...)
    (3) Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to establish requirements for equipment and devices to be used on any vehicle and defines the types of vehicles for this purpose. Existing law requires that license plates be securely fastened at all times to the vehicle for which they are issued so as to prevent the plates from swinging, be mounted in a position so as to be clearly visible, and be maintained in a condition so as to be clearly legible. A violation of the Vehicle Code is a crime. This bill would also require that license plates be mounted in a position so that the characters are upright and display from left to right.
    (in addition, this bill defines the following highway related funding--commuter rail funding items omitted... this appears to be the TCRP... I couldn't identify any changes to highway projects, except perhaps in funding amounts or requestors)
    14556.40. (a) The following projects are eligible for grants from the fund for the purposes and amounts specified: […]
    (3) Route 101; widen freeway from four to eight lanes south of San Jose, Bernal Road to Burnett Avenue in Santa Clara County. Twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000).
    (4) Route 680; add northbound HOV lane over Sunol Grade, Milpitas to Route 84 in Santa Clara and Alameda Counties. Sixty million dollars ($60,000,000).

• July/August 2010:

  Well, actually, it is Labor Day weekend, but I'm not going call this September quite yet. Still, a holiday weekend affords me the luxury of updating the website, so here goes...

  The following are updates from my reading of the papers (which are posted to California Highways Facebook group) as well as any backed up email changes. I reviewed the the AAroads forum and misc.transport.road, but found nothing worth converting into updates. This resulted in changes on the following routes, with credit as indicated [my research⁽¹⁾, contributions of information or leads (via direct mail or Usenet) from Patrick Carroll⁽²⁾, Paul D. DeRocco⁽³⁾, Hank Fung⁽⁴⁾, Chad Jones⁽⁵⁾, Cameron Kaiser⁽⁶⁾, Chris Sampang⁽⁷⁾, Allen Widdows⁽⁸⁾, and Joel Windmiller⁽⁹⁾]:Route 1⁽⁷⁾, Route 2⁽¹⁾, Route 4⁽¹⁾, I-5⁽¹⁾, US 6⁽¹⁾, I-10^(1,4), Route 12⁽¹⁾, Route 14⁽¹⁾, Route 24^(1,7), Route 41⁽¹⁾, US 50⁽⁷⁾, Route 57⁽¹⁾, Former US 66⁽¹⁾, I-80⁽¹⁾, Route 84⁽¹⁾, Route 88⁽⁹⁾, Route 91⁽¹⁾, LRN 98⁽⁷⁾, Route 99⁽¹⁾, US 101^(1,5,7), Route 110⁽¹⁾, Route 148⁽⁷⁾, Route 168⁽¹⁾, I-210⁽⁸⁾, I-215⁽¹⁾, US 395^(1,6,3), I-580⁽¹⁾, I-680⁽²⁾.

  Removed links to Chris Sampang's websites, as he confirmed the providers have disappeared.

  Checked the Calnexus page to see if there had been any updates. There weren't any.

  Reviewed the Pending Legislation page. Noted the passage of the following:

  • AB 1500 (Lieu) High-occupancy lanes: single occupancy vehicles: sunset date.
    Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to designate certain lanes for the exclusive use of high-occupancy vehicles (HOV), which lanes may also be used, until January 1, 2011, by certain low-emission and hybrid vehicles not carrying the requisite number of passengers otherwise required for the use of an HOV lane if the vehicle displays a valid identifier issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles. Existing law, until January 1, 2011, makes it a misdemeanor to illegally use a decal, label, or other identifiers issued by the department. This bill would extend the date, to January 1, 2015, that specified vehicles can use high-occupancy lanes, the department can issue low-emission and hybrid decals or other identifiers, and illegal use of a department-issued decal is considered a misdemeanor, creating a state-mandated local program.
    Chaptered July 6, 2010. Chapter 37.

  • AB 1908 (Cook) Vehicles: specialized license plates: Veterans' organization.
    Under existing law, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues environmental and other specialized license plates, including veterans' organization license plates. Those license plates are required to have a distinctive design or decal. The issuance of those license plates is subject to additional fees, the revenue from which, less the DMV's costs, is required to be deposited in the Veterans Service Office Fund, except that ½ of a specified additional fee is required to be deposited in the California Environmental License Plate Fund. Existing law requires money in the Veterans Service Office Fund to be available, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to the Department of Veterans Affairs for allocation and disbursement to counties for the operation of county veterans service offices. This bill would authorize the Department of Veterans Affairs to modify the distinctive design or decal for those veterans' organization license plates. The bill would authorize those newly designed plates or decals to be issued only after all existing plates or decals have been issued. The bill also would delete the requirement that ½ of the specified additional fee be deposited in the California Environmental License Plate Fund, and, instead, would require all revenue from those additional fees, less the DMV's costs, to be deposited in the Veterans Service Office Fund. The bill would require the DMV, by July 1, 2011, to maintain on its Internet Web site, a link to order online the veterans' organization license plates.

  • SB 535 (Yee) Vehicles: High-occupancy vehicle lanes.
    (1) Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to designate certain lanes for the exclusive use of high-occupancy vehicles (HOVs), which lanes may also be used, until January 1, 2015, or until the Secretary of State receives a specified notice, by certain low-emission, hybrid, or alternative fuel vehicles not carrying the requisite number of passengers otherwise required for the use of an HOV lane, if the vehicle displays a valid identifier. A violation of provisions relating to HOV lane use by vehicles with those identifiers is a crime. This bill would revise that provision to provide that it shall remain in effect only until the Secretary of State receives that specified notice, with respect to a vehicle that meets California's super ultra-low exhaust emission standard and the federal inherently low-emission evaporative emission (ILEV) standard and a vehicle produced during the 2004 model-year or earlier that meets the California ultra-low emission vehicle standard and the ILEV standard. With respect to all other vehicles described above, this provision shall be operative only until July 1, 2011, or only until the Secretary of State receives that specified notice, whichever occurs first. Existing law requires the Department of Transportation to remove individual HOV lanes, or portions of those lanes, during periods of peak congestion, after making certain findings, including, among other things, a finding that the department demonstrate the infeasibility of alleviating the congestion by other means, including, but not limited to, reducing the use of the lane by noneligible vehicles or further increasing vehicle occupancy. This bill would delete this required finding. The bill, between January 1, 2012, and January 1, 2015, would require the Department of Motor Vehicles to issue up to 40,000 identifiers that are distinguishable from the identifiers issued for low-emission, hybrid, and alternative fuel vehicles to vehicles that meet California's enhanced advanced technology partial zero-emission vehicle (enhanced AT PZEV) standard, except the department's authorization to do so would end if the secretary receives the specified notice before then. The bill would authorize vehicles with that identifier to use HOV lanes until January 1, 2015, or until the Secretary of State receives a specified notice, whichever occurs first. By extending and changing the definition of a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would make technical and conforming changes. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

  I've been so busy, it seems the only time I can find to update the Highways pages is when I take a vacation day to do it. So, my timecard has been filled out and "V" has been charged, so it's you and me, dear friend.

  The following are updates from my reading of the papers (which are posted to California Highways Facebook group) as well as any backed up email changes. I reviewed the the AAroads forum and misc.transport.road, but found nothing worth converting into updates.

• February/March/April 2010:

  It's been a while, hasn't it. As usual, life got in the way: be it other weekend plans, or the death of a dear family friend, or other medical issues. But this weekend is an update weekend, and so while you celebrate Easter (if you do), I'll update highway pages. With that said....

  The following are any updates from backed up email changes, notes from my reading of the papers (which are usually posted to the Facebook group), the AAroads forum, as well as updates from misc.transport.road (which has become useless). This resulted in changes on the following routes, with credit as indicated [my research⁽¹⁾, contributions of information or leads (via direct mail or Usenet) from Julie East⁽²⁾, Eric Fischer⁽³⁾, Mark Furqueron⁽⁴⁾, Michael Patrick⁽⁵⁾, SLO Richards⁽⁶⁾, Daniel T⁽⁷⁾, and Joel Windmiller⁽⁸⁾]:El Camino⁽⁶⁾, Route 17⁽⁷⁾, Route 24⁽¹⁾, Route 49⁽⁸⁾, Route 76⁽⁴⁾, Route 77⁽²⁾, Route 84⁽¹⁾, Route 91 (Orange-Riverside County Connector)⁽¹⁾, Route 92⁽¹⁾, Route 125⁽¹⁾, Route 152⁽⁵⁾, Route 160⁽¹⁾, Route 283⁽²⁾, Former Route 480⁽¹⁾, US 101⁽¹⁾, I-80⁽¹⁾, I-380⁽³⁾, I-405⁽¹⁾, I-710⁽¹⁾.

  Updated a link into AARoads, as they start their dynamic link conversion project. This is something I'm not looking foward to.

  Reviewed the Pending Legislation page. In the assembly, over three months, just about 1100 new bills were introduced; in the senate, over 500. One would think, over time, we would get it closer to right than having to modify things more! As the OC Register called it: squirrels, distracting folks from getting the real work done! There were some new bills introduced, but nothing has passed yet.

  I checked the CTC Liaison page,, for the results of the February and March meetings (although March had nothing of interest). The following items were of interest:

  • 2.1a. Program Amendments/Project Approvals – STIP Amendments for Action

Pulled from Consent Calendar for discussion. Commissioner Ghielmetti inquired about the relationship of this item to the Doyle Drive P3 project.
