Solutions for Congested Corridors Program (SCCP)

The Solutions for Congested Corridors Program (SCCP) funds projects that reduce congestion with a goal of achieving a balanced set of transportation, environmental, and community access improvements.

The SCCP makes $250 million available annually to projects that implement specific transportation performance improvements and are part of a comprehensive corridor plan, by providing more transportation choices while preserving the character of local communities and creating opportunities for neighborhood enhancement. Eligible projects may include improvements to state highways, local streets, rail facilities, public transit facilities, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and preservation of critical local habitat and open spaces.

More details about SCCP are available on the California Transportation Commission website.

Airport Metro Connector (AMC) 96th Street Transit Station

AMC is a new multi-modal transportation center which include a new light rail station, bus plaza, bicycle parking, customer service center, and passenger pick-up and drop-off area. The AMC will improve transportation to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) for travelers and employees.

Key Benefits

• Increased safety and transit connectivity

• Reduced congestion and greenhouse gas emissions

• Increased use of active transportation methods (bike and pedestrian)

• Increased access to jobs in the community

• Increased efficiency for travelers through dedicated passenger pick-up and drop-off areas

• Enhanced security with the use of a bicycle hub

Located on the future line (currently under construction) known as the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project, the AMC will provide three at-grade light rail transit platform connections (Automated People Mover or APM, the Crenshaw/LAX rail line, and the Metro Green Line), as well as 16 bus terminals. Once in operation, this new station will let riders transfer quickly and easily between LAX and LA Metro’s network. Groundbreaking occurred in the summer of 2021 and the project completion is expected in winter of 2024. Total project costs are nearly $900M with SCCP providing $150M.
