EQUITY PLATFORM
All Projects are administrated by Caltrans and have gone through their own separate environmental process. Throughout the construction phase, outreach efforts consist of sending press releases to the cities, communities, media outlets, and elected offices regarding construction work. Caltrans Public Affairs unit responds to constituent inquiries. Community meetings were held prior to construction and are scheduled on an as-needed basis (i.e., upon request of stakeholders). Progress reports and updated information is posted on Caltrans and Metro websites. Every effort is made to avoid, minimize and/or mitigate construction impacts along these corridor communities. For example, most of the projects include building sound walls to mitigate noise levels at various locations throughout their respective project limits to help improve the quality of life for residents. Any unintended equity impacts that may arise will be responded to on a case-by-case basis by appropriate project partners.
