5.6.3 Mitigation Measures <br /> Description of Mitigation Measures <br /> One transportation system improvement currently underway is <br /> construction of the Broadway Overcrossing and Owens Drive. Completion <br /> of the Broadway Overcrossing will significantly increase north-south <br />`I- <br /> capacity and provide direct connection to Fashion Square without <br /> necessitating use of Main Street. The Broadway Overcrossing will <br /> provide direct, access to/from the Santa Ana Freeway without increasing <br /> Main Street traffic. <br /> The following mitigation measures are reconnended to reduce <br /> the traffic impacts of the proposed Fashion Square project: <br /> 1. Contribute a one percent (1%) assessment fee to the 4oint <br />C <br /> City of Santa Ana and City of Orange Transportation <br /> System Improvement Program (TSIP) to fund needed <br /> transportation improvements i the area identified in the <br /> Phase Two TSIP Study. <br />U. <br /> The TSIP Assessment Fee of one percent of project <br /> building cost is expected to generate only half of the <br /> cost of the reconriended Phase Two TSIP Plan. The Fashion <br /> Square development (the developers themselves and the <br /> Redevelopment Agency alike) must be prepared to fund <br /> those areawide transportation improvements which <br /> principally benefit their project as well as contribute a <br /> one percent assessment to the TSIP Program. <br /> 2. Provide funding for the construction of a pair of new <br /> freeway ramps on the west side of Fashion Square linking <br /> the Santa Ana Freeway with a public road surrounding the <br /> project. <br /> 111
