The MAP will include a wide range of transportation capital improvements that make it safer, easier, and more sustainable to move around Los Angeles. This includes projects like sidewalk and crosswalk upgrades, traffic signal improvements, bikeways, bus-only lanes, transit stop upgrades, and street safety features like speed humps and better lighting. Together, these investments will help create a more connected and accessible transportation network citywide.

The MAP will be shaped by input from a Community Advisory Board (CAB) made up of 15 Angelenos, a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) of City staff with diverse expertise, and  in-person and online feedback from community members throughout the city. Citywide outreach efforts will focus on historically underserved communities to ensure the MAP reflects the city’s most pressing transportation needs. 

The Mobility Action Plan is about project delivery. It takes the big-picture goals of the Mobility Plan 2035 - the transportation chapter of the City’s General Plan - and turns them into prioritized investments. The MAP creates one citywide investment list so we can better coordinate, focus resources, and make decisions based on what people actually need.

The MAP is being developed alongside the City’s new Capital Improvement Program (CIP), created under the Mayor’s Executive Directive 9. The CIP will guide how Los Angeles invests in all types of infrastructure over multiple years. The prioritized project list from the MAP will serve as the mobility chapter of the citywide CIP, ensuring transportation investments are coordinated, equitable, and aligned with citywide infrastructure priorities.

The Mobility Action Plan is intended to help the City move from a reactive approach to project development to a more proactive, coordinated transportation investment strategy. The MAP will produce a five-year plan for projects intended to begin in 2028 and a longer-term 20-year vision.

Funding is expected to come from a mix of sources that typically support transportation capital improvements, including the City’s capital planning processes, regional transportation revenues, and competitive state and federal grants. The MAP’s prioritized project list is meant to guide City decision-making, align timing and readiness across departments, and strengthen the City’s ability to pursue grant and outside funding in a more strategic, coordinated way.

A project’s inclusion in the MAP signals that it is a City priority and part of a coordinated delivery plan, but does not automatically mean funding has already been secured. Some projects in the five-year plan may be fully or partially funded, while others may be positioned to compete for grants or future funding as opportunities become available.

The Mobility Action Plan focuses on longer-term capital investments, but residents can still request near-term improvements through the City’s regular service request channels. The best starting point is to submit a request through MyLA311 (online, app, or by calling 3-1-1), which helps route issues such as traffic signal concerns, signage, striping, and other operational needs to the appropriate department and allows residents to track the request.

The MAP will engage Angelenos citywide through a two-phase outreach process that includes a strong emphasis on engagement in  Equity Priority Areas. In the first phase, we’ll be gathering input on transportation priorities citywide and learning about specific needs and barriers in communities that have been historically underserved. In the second phase, we’ll share a draft of the MAP so residents can see how their feedback shaped the plan and offer final input before it’s finalized.

Equity Priority Areas (EPAs) are communities in Los Angeles with greater transportation investment needs, based on factors such as income, access to services, health outcomes, and transportation challenges. EPAs are identified using social, economic, and environmental data to ensure that improvements address historical inequities and benefit underserved communities. The five EPAs are located in Central LA, South LA, Northeast Valley, Northeast Communities, and the Harbor Area.

Equity is built into every step of the MAP. Engagement focuses on communities that have experienced historic underinvestment, and data is used to identify where transportation needs are greatest. This ensures funding decisions reflect both community input and fairness in how resources are distributed.

Community feedback gathered through surveys, events, and conversations will guide how the City prioritizes projects for funding and delivery. Engagement results will help identify the transportation needs and priorities of residents across Los Angeles, particularly in historically underserved communities, ensuring the MAP reflects what Angelenos value most.

No. The MAP does not select single projects. Instead, it uses community input to determine what types of transportation improvements should be prioritized across the city. That helps guide which investments move forward first.
