OCTA is conducting a study that is considering, among other options, <br />extending the OC Streetcar south on Bristol Street to the John Wayne Airport <br />area to connect to job centers in Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, Newport Beach and <br />Irvine. <br />The Cities believe an OC Streetcar extension to the Anaheim Resort area <br />should move forward as expeditiously as possible to provide community <br />benefits, improve public transportation services, and capture future state and <br />federal funds for project implementation. <br />K. Santa Ana also believes an OC Streetcar extension to the John Wayne <br />Airport should move forward as expeditiously as possible to provide <br />community benefits, improve public transportation services, and capture <br />future state and federal funds for project implementation. <br />Section 2.
