Map of I-405 Comprehensive Multimodal Corridor Plan Study Area.

The I-405 CMCP is a long-range transportation plan that identifies ways to reduce traffic and improve mobility along the full length of the I-405 corridor in LA County. The plan covers a six-mile-wide study area (three miles on either side of the freeway) from the San Fernando Valley to the Orange County Line, serving 20 cities and 40 LA neighborhoods.

Approved by the Metro Board in 2022, the plan outlines community-supported strategies to move more people, reduce congestion, expand access for all modes, and invest in historically underserved communities. Metro has already secured $52 million for early projects and continues to seek funding for additional improvements.
