RCIP is a comprehensive, three-part, integrated program to determine future conservation, transportation and housing and economic needs in Riverside County.
Riverside County is home to some of the busiest transportation corridors in the nation.
Traffic is expected to double on some existing freeways in western Riverside County, including the 91 and 215 freeways, as a result of population and employment growth in Riverside, Orange and Los Angeles counties. RCIP's transportation program is more than just a freeway plan, it is a multi-modal effort that considers not only highway options, but also looks at mass transit and other forms of travel demand management and infrastructure planning including utilities and communication. This element of RCIP will identify the locations for new transportation facilities that will help benefit commuters and serve Riverside County's growing economy. RCIP Balances land-use in the County by determining where our future housing, schools and businesses will be located. The General Plan is a very important document that is updated to reflect the growing changes in a community.
