Transportation Multimodal Plan
Over the past few years, various transportation agencies with jurisdiction within Orange County have adopted more than 30 plans and ordinances. This plan aims to consolidate the recommendations and regulations from all these plans to one single platform to allow a more cohesive and strategic approach to addressing multimodal needs and prioritizing projects.
What is a Transportation Multimodal Plan?
The Orange County Transportation Multimodal Plan (TMP) is a strategic framework that integrates various modes of transportation to create a balanced and interconnected system. It consolidates projects and programs from existing plans, providing a countywide perspective on transportation initiatives. By identifying gaps in the unincorporated areas of the county and providing recommendations to address underserved communities, the TMP aims to ensure equitable access to transportation resources across Orange County.
The TMP will ultimately develop a method for prioritizing projects based on factors such as cost, impacts, needs, and benefits, and will create an action plan that outlines the steps to implement the prioritized projects.
The project area includes all of Orange County’s unincorporated areas and includes projects developed by the following transportation agencies. To learn more about their individual transportation plans and policies, please visit their websites.

Community engagement is vital to the success of the TMP. We encourage residents, businesses, and stakeholders to providE feedback, attend public meetings, and stay informed about upcoming transportation initiatives. Your input will help shape the future of transportation in Orange County.
Orange County invites stakeholders and community members to attend one of two in-person public workshops. There will be no formal presentation during the workshop, and participants can drop in at any time to talk with the planning team. Information shared at the workshop will be posted on this webpage for community members who are interested but unable to attend.
