Huntington Drive - City of LA Multi-Modal Improvements

Thank you for your feedback!

The City, Council District 14 and Project Team are grateful to all that took time to participate in the first step to reimagining auto, bus, bike and pedestrian modes of travel along Huntington Drive and North Mission Road. Thanks in part to the community’s involvement the team has successfully completed the Feasibility Study.

The next step in the project is to proceed with the Project Approval & Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase, which involves preparing the necessary environmental analysis for formal submittal of the Environmental Document and selection of the Preferred Alternative.

Project Overview

The Huntington Drive Multi-Modal Transportation Improvement Project will transform and improve the Huntington Drive corridor for all modes of transportation, including vehicle, bus, bicycles and pedestrians with enhanced access to commercial businesses, residential neighborhoods, educational facilities, recreational centers and industrial properties. The City of Los Angeles Bureau of Engineering, in partnership with Councilmember Kevin De León (Council District 14), plan to improve vehicular circulation, upgrade transit service and ridership, enhance bicycle and pedestrian safety and access, and integrate modern technology and travel options. Through this project, Huntington Drive would thus become a high-quality regional mobility corridor connecting various Eastside communities to Downtown Los Angeles.

Mobility Improvement Concepts

Improve mobility for all roadway users, including vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians
Improve traffic flow and enhance safety
Create open space
Evaluate parking availability
Develop transit alternatives, such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)
Incorporate emerging technologies

Study Corridor

LA METRO has formally increased the project limits to include the extended study corridor along North Mission Road from Soto Street to Valley Boulevard. This segment will be included in the environmental analysis in the next phase of the project.

The Huntington Drive Multi-Modal Transportation Improvement Project is a four-mile stretch connecting the City of Alhambra and South Pasadena to North Mission Road near LAC+USC Medical Center. This section of Huntington Drive is a heavily trafficked, three-lane north-bound and south-bound roadway that serves residential, commercial, institutional, recreational and industrial land uses. The southern portion of Huntington Drive corridor reduces to two lanes in each direction, continuing to Valley Boulevard.
