241

US Secretary of Commerce Carlos Gutierrez today sided with radical environmentalists in southern California rejecting the alignment for the 241 Foothill South (CA241) tollroad that has been supported by USDOT, USEPA, US Fish and Wildlife Service, as well as by the state of California and local governments in the area as well as the local public Foothill/Eastern toll

There's strong public support for completing the 241 Toll Road (Foothill South) in Orange County California despite an unscrupulous and noisy campaign of opposition, magnified by an antagonistic Los Angeles Times and other local media. In southern Orange County where the tollroad will be built a survey of 757 voters shows 58% support completion while 31% oppose with 10% undecided.

Construction of the last leg of the Foothill South Toll Road (CA241) to join the I-5 in San Onofre California will have no discernible effects on the famous surf beach nearby, a famous oceanography has concluded.

The Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) have filed an appeal with the US Secretary of Commerce asking the US Government to overrule an attempt by the extreme environmentalist California Coastal Commission (CCC) to block completion of their CA241 Foothill Toll Road in San Clemente, between Los Angeles and San Diego. The CCC comprises mostly leftists opposed to road construction who think government should "get people out of cars". They voted Feb 6 against the tollroad 8 to 2.
