SANDAG and Caltrans District 11 are developing a Comprehensive Multimodal Corridor Plan (CMCP) for State Route (SR) 94.

The CMCP will identify strategies to better serve the transportation needs in the project area and reduce vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions. We will consider factors such as climate adaptation, land use, transit, local roadways, highways, active transportation, goods movement, flexible fleets, mobility hubs, transportation systems management, social equity, and emerging technologies. SANDAG will collaborate with jurisdictions in the project area, partner agencies, regional stakeholders, tribal governments, community-based organizations, business groups, and the public to develop recommendations to improve traffic flow and build a safe, accessible, and efficient network of transportation options.

SR 94 is one of the primary east-west routes that people use to travel through Central San Diego. It is an important road for commuters going to and from Downtown San Diego, with high traffic volumes during peak commute periods. It intersects most of the major north-south metropolitan routes, such as Interstate 5 (I-5), SR 15, I-805, SR 125, and SR 54. The route crosses through the neighborhoods of Greater Golden Hill, Sherman Heights, and Grant Hill and continues southeast toward Stockton, Mount Hope, Emerald Hills, and Chollas Creek. SR 94 also intersects the cities of La Mesa and Lemon Grove and the County of San Diego communities of Spring Valley and Casa de Oro.

Completing the CMCP will help the San Diego region compete for local, state, and federal funds, including Senate Bill 1 and the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. We expect to complete the SR 94 CMCP in the summer of 2026.

Objectives

The SR 94 CMCP will create a comprehensive set of safe, sustainable, and equitable transportation solutions that are tailored to the needs of the people who use the corridor and that promote community vitality and improve quality of life. The primary goals of the SR 94 CMCP are to:

• Identify the transportation needs of the people who live, work, visit, and travel through the study area
• Gather input from the community to create solutions that integrate with current development and land use policies while promoting an innovative, resilient, efficient, and accessible multimodal transportation system
• Create a plan that enhances economic vitality, fosters safe and healthy communities, and improves equitable access to jobs, education, and services
