CORRESPONDENCE
Orange C~unty Transit District Station Location
Mr. Flea~le informed the Commission that the proposed location for
the Tustin area is located on Edinger, west of the Newport
Freeway in Santa Ana. This would require the use of Red Hill
Avenue for access for Tustin residents, compounding existing
traffic congestion on Red Hill and at the Edinger-Red Hill
intersection. Mr. Fleagle su¢[gested instead, that the station
be located at the SFRR mainline and Jamboree Boulevard. This
location would give impetus to the improvement of Jamboree
Boulevard and direct commuter traffic onto a major arterial
with capability to accommodate the traffic without congestion
of existing streets, and provide necessary service to the
industrial complex.
