405 Toll Lanes to be Addressed at Tuesday Meeting
The OCTA has proposed adding toll lanes to the 405 Freeway in Orange County.
A community meeting on Tuesday will offer the public a chance to comment on a proposal to add toll lanes to the 405 Freeway in Orange County.
The meeting, which will be held at the Community Services Building in Westminster, will feature a panel consisting of city council members from six cities including Los Alamitos, Seal Beach, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach and Westminster.
The meeting will also include remarks from elected officials including Orange County Supervisor John Moorlach, State Assemblyman Allan Mansoor and State Assemblyman Travis Allen.
The meeting will address the proposed stretch of toll road on the 405 freeway between SR-55 in Costa Mesa and the 605 freeway at Orange County's border with Los Angeles County.
The proposed toll lanes by the Orange County Transportation Authority will go up for a vote at the OCTA Board of Directors meeting on Nov. 8. Organizers said that Tuesday's meeting is meant to gather public feedback on the proposal to pass along to the OCTA and Caltrans.
The proposal has drawn much criticism from the public and city leaders, including vocal opposition at a similar community meeting last July.
Tuesday's meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Westminster Community Services Building, 8300 Westminster Boulevard.
