About SB 1
Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, was signed into law on April 28, 2017. This legislative package invests $54 billion over the next decade to fix roads, freeways and bridges in communities across California and puts more dollars toward transit and safety. These funds will be split equally between state and local investments. See where the money is going.
SB 1's investment in transportation is split equally between the state and cities and counties.
SB 1 has enabled numerous advancements to California's transportation system.
See below for a sampling of the areas of improvement.
ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE
Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Purchased 5 zero emission buses for the communities of Anaheim, Costa Mesa, Garden Grove and Santa Ana.

Which will result in a 14,700-ton reduction in annual CO2 emissions.
Projects that support walking and biking

4 miles of pedestrian and bike lanes were added in Sacramento County connecting the communities of Elk Grove to Sacramento.

5 miles of bike lanes were added in San Diego County connecting the communities of Cardiff and Carlsbad.
Improving transit options

Improvement of six transit stations will result in over 6 million fewer hours Californians spend in traffic annually in Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Redlands by providing enhanced access to light rail and bus lines.

9 miles of new rail as well as improvement of 5 bridges and 6 transit stations in San Bernardino County and the Port of Los Angeles will result in 18,709 fewer hours of delays each day for California’s drivers.
Safety Improvements

Enhanced the safety at 13 locations along Interstate 5 in the communities of Encinitas and Carlsbad by adding lighting, signal and striping improvements.

Which will result in 6 less vehicle-related incidents each year.
Projects that keep traffic moving

140 new lane miles of carpool lanes on 5 corridors in communities including San Mateo, Santa Clara, Sacramento, Sonoma, Santa Barbara and San Diego Counties.

Which will result in 103,000 fewer hours travelers spend idling in traffic.
Quality of life improvements

Eight miles of new sound walls will dampen noise created by traffic for people living in Sacramento, Petaluma, and Carpinteria.
