Nearly 10 years have passed since Measure M2, Orange County’s half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements, was approved by nearly 70 percent of the voters in 2006. In this short amount of time, Measure M2 has improved Orange County by providing for $900 million in freeway improvements, purchasing 1,300 acres of open space for preservation, and making enhancements to 52 rail-highway grade crossings. These are just a few of the Measure M2 milestones that make it safer, easier, and more pleasant for residents to live and travel in Orange County.
As part of a Measure M2 Ten-Year Comprehensive Program Review, OCTA is asking residents to provide feedback on the Measure M2 transportation improvements going on throughout Orange County. To learn more about Measure M2’s progress and to provide your thoughts, please click here.
A 30-year extension of an earlier program, Measure M2 was passed following the successful delivery of transportation improvements by its predecessor, Measure M1. Sales tax collection for M2 began in April 2011.
