The SCCP funds multi -modal projects that make specific performance improvements in highly -traveled corridors by providing more transportation choices such as walking, biking and transit. In February 2018, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) submitted the Orange County Central Corridor Improvement Project (OC-CCIP) for funding consideration. The OC-CCIP is a multi -modal package of projects designed to relieve congestion along State Route 55 from Interstate 405 to Interstate 5. In partnership with the City of Santa Ana, the OC-CCIP includes the Warner Avenue Class II Bikeway Project in the City of Santa Ana. The Warner Avenue Class II Bikeway Project consists of painted bike lanes that will include signage and bicycle traffic signal detection from Wright Street to Red Hill Avenue.
