The Board Of Directors for the Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission has voted unanimously to approve 5 regional projects (and investments) funded by measure d. They include:
- Highway 1 corridor,
- Active transportation on the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail Network,
- The Rail Corridor,
- The San Lorenzo Valley/Highway 9 Corridor and
- The Highway 17 Wildlife Crossing,
The commission also directed R.T.C. staff to use Measure D funds to leverage grants for these projects.
Measure D is a 30-year, ½-cent local sales tax which went into effect in April 2017. It provides local funds for high-priority projects in the region, and helps address local road maintenance.
