Long Beach-East LA Corridor Mobility Investment Plan

The Long Beach-East Los Angeles Corridor Mobility Investment Plan, adopted unanimously by the Metro Board of Directors on April 25, 2024, targets a $4 billion investment to enhance regional mobility, safety, and air quality. Arellano Associates led this collaborative effort using JEDI strategies and innovative engagement methods, includes local residents, community organizations, transportation and goods movement industries, labor, and academic partners. Aimed at improving economic vitality, social equity, and environmental sustainability, the plan focuses on addressing traffic congestion and aging infrastructure, while expanding access and benefits for LA County residents, particularly those near I-710. Its broad impact and historical significance have prompted sharing with cities and agencies nationwide, including the US Department of Transportation.
