Washington Corridor Transit-Oriented Communities/Multimodal Connectivity Specific Plan
The City of Montebello is collaborating with a qualified consulting firm to develop the Washington Corridor Transit-Oriented Communities/Multimodal Connectivity (TOC/MC) Specific Plan. This plan will guide future land use development, establish zoning regulations, and define design standards and guidelines for the area surrounding Washington Boulevard and Greenwood Avenue, home to the future Metro Eastside Light Rail Station.
In addition, the plan will enhance multimodal transportation access and address connectivity challenges to improve connections to key destinations throughout the City, including transit hubs, commercial centers, schools, parks, and recreational facilities.
The TOC/MC Specific Plan will incorporate innovative transit-oriented development strategies and multimodal connectivity solutions to foster a safer, more livable, and environmentally sustainable community. It will support the City’s efforts to prepare for the upcoming light rail station by ensuring seamless access to employment centers, educational institutions, and essential services across the region.
Overall, the plan emphasizes the creation of cohesive zoning regulations and design standards while promoting safety, expanding housing opportunities, and strengthening active transportation infrastructure for residents.
