David Thomas, Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) Project Manager, provided an overview
of the State Route 91 Project. This included the criteria used to select project contractors and consultants;
project limits, constraints, goals and objectives; and upcoming construction segments and their completion
deadlines. The stretch in which improvements will be implemented are shown in the figure below.
For those who are waiting to improve their commute, this project is expected to be completed in 2017. David
had provided a copy of his presentation in PDF format for everyone who may have missed the meeting. The
presentation can be accessed from the OCTEC website at http://www.iterisprojects.com/octec/meet.html
Mark Miller also provided a brief overview of the California Senate Bill 743, especially in regards to the
actions he and all of us should be taking to better understand the bill as well as contribute to the outcome of
this bill. The final date to receive comments was Friday, February 14, 2014 at 5PM. The final draft is expected
to be released on July 1, 2014.
