Comprehensive Multimodal Corridor Plan (CMCP)

North County at a Glance What is a CMCP? A Comprehensive Multimodal Corridor Plan (CMCP) is a strategic blueprint for identifying and implementing multimodal projects and services within communities predominantly along a specific corridor.  A CMCP utilizes a multimodal planning process to create a balanced, equitable transportation system that integrates mobility options such as driving, biking, walking, transit, micro-mobility, and other mobility services to move people and goods within North County and beyond. A corridor study area may include multiple facilities such as local arterial roadways, state highways, rail lines, transit systems, and active transportation facilities. The CMCP document is based on an integrated planning process that brings together residents, local jurisdictions, tribal governments, and other planning agencies.  The North County CMCP explores significant transportation policy challenges in the corridor including: -	Aligning the state, regional, and local transportation policies and land use planning -	Closing the accessibility gap for historically disadvantaged communities -	Addressing transportation’s role in response to climate change -	Phasing improvements to meet changing needs, available funding, and dynamically evolving technology -	Addressing barriers to implementation  What is in the North County CMCP? To give travelers efficient, easy to use travel choices, the plan proposes $8.5 billion of balanced and integrated transportation infrastructure and service improvements ($5.5 billion Capital Improvements and $3 billion in operations/services). -	$4.3B Transit Leap -	$3.5B Complete Corridors -	$120M Next OS -	$350M Mobility Hubs -	$420M Flexible Fleets  Who was involved in developing the CMCP? The North County Comprehensive Multimodal Corridor Plan (CMCP) is the result of a two-year collaboration between SANDAG, Caltrans, North County Transit District (NCTD), the cities of Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, the County of San Diego, key stakeholders, and the public to comprehensively improve mobility within North County. The robust involvement demonstrated North County’s important role in contributing to the competitiveness of the San Diego and binational mega region.
Why does North County need a CMCP? North County is home to 1 in 5 (20%) of the region’s residents and jobs and by 2050 is expected to grow by 13% in population and 26% in jobs. By planning for North County’s growing and changing population, and shifts in travel patterns, land use, and technology, the CMCP helps to ensure North County’s transportation network continues to foster a vibrant community that supports economic opportunity in the future and sustains a high quality of life for all. Additionally, demonstrating a multimodal system approach to today’s transportation challenges has become an eligibility requirement for many state and federal grant programs. With a CMCP, identified projects are eligible for specific state funding sources. By 2050 – 116,000 New Jobs, 84,000 New Residents What are the expected results from the proposed project improvements? -	Reduce fatalities and severe injuries and provide protection for vulnerable road users -	Create a seamless “door-to-door” system of transportation improvements -	Reduce total daily travel times by 15 minutes (22% average per resident) -	Increase daily transit ridership from 35,000 to over 140,000 by focusing service on growth opportunities in and between mobility hubs -	Double access to jobs, housing, and education within 30 minutes via transit -	Meet regional and state policy goals.
