Traffic : proposed TransNet projects

The Revenue Constrained scenario is based only on current sources (and levels) of federal, state, and local transportation revenue, projected out to the year 2030. It does not include future increases in federal and/or state taxes. In particular, it does not assume the extension of the TransNet 0.5% county-wide sales tax beyond its current 2008 expiration date.

In November, 2004, voters in San Diego county approved Proposition A, which extends the TransNet tax for another 40 years. This will generate some $14 billion for transportation projects and programs.

The map below depicts proposed components of the TransNet extension in the San Diego region. Note that improvements to Interstate 5 (addition of two HOV lanes) along the entire corrodor south of the merge are included. No such improvements are planned in the Revenue Constrained 2030 RTP highway network.
