NORTH COUNTY PROJECTS

The $455 million in funding for projects north of the Santa Ynez mountains includes the cities of Buellton, Guadalupe, Lompoc, Santa Maria, Solvang and all unincorporated areas including Orcutt, Vandenberg Village, Los Alamos, Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, and New Cuyama. Nearly 70% will go to local governments and will be used to fund projects that are a priority in each community including road maintenance, repair and improvements. Each city council and the board of supervisors will select projects with public input on an annual basis.

Transportation improvement projects funded in north county include widening the Highway 101 Santa Maria River Bridge, passing lanes on Highway 246 between Lompoc and Buellton, safety improvements on Highway 166, new freeway interchanges in Santa Maria and Orcutt, and circulation improvements for Buellton, Guadalupe and Solvang.
Funding is also allocated for specialized transit for the elderly and disabled, improved transit service between communities, safe routes to school and bicycle and pedestrian improvements.
