Irvine Long-Range Transportation Vision Plan
Client: City of Irvine
Location: Irvine, California
The City of Irvine has been recognized around the world as one of the great planned cities of the late 20th Century. Visions of connected villages to live, work, shop, and play were part of the original design that created the magnificent City it is today. As the City entered the 21st Century with one-third of the City yet to be built, the City of Irvine retained the services of LSA Associates, Inc. to prepare a mobility report card of how the City is doing today and to develop a “vision” for future transportation. This vision expands on the General Plan Circulation Element goal “to provide a balanced transportation system.” Keeping the City of Irvine as an oasis of mobility is extremely challenging, since it is nestled in a growing and populous Orange County. With increased local and regional growth, the original master street plan still works well but needs fine-tuning. The vision of pedestrian and bicycle trails that connects all parts of the City remains viable. The next major undertaking is in the area of transit to serve the growing and aging population. Critical to the success of transit is the regional air and rail connections with local transit connections to home, work, services, and play.
