The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) proposes to construct a new south half interchange on Interstate 405 freeway at Arbor Vitae Street, which would include a new southbound on-ramp and a northbound off-ramp. The new ramps would span approximately from Arbor Vitae Street to Century Boulevard.  The project also entails widening the existing Arbor Vitae Street overcrossing bridge from 78 feet to 90 feet.

Caltrans has published a Draft Environmental Assessment/Initial Study (EA/IS) for which they have solicited comments from the public.  The City of Inglewood has submitted the following comments on the EA/IS findings.

Inglewood CA (January 25, 2010) - Inglewood City Council statement on the resignation of Mayor Roosevelt F. Dorn:

The resignation of Mayor Roosevelt Dorn is an unfortunate development and a sad day for Inglewood. We acknowledge Mayor Dorn for his long service and commitment to the City and its residents, and we wish him and his family well.  At this time, our priority is to ensure that the transition prescribed by the City Charter proceeds seamlessly, and that City services continue to be delivered at the highest level possible without interruption.

This fresh new design is the result of several months of discussion and testing by the City's technology experts and administrative staff who investigated websites from across the nation prior to deciding on the current approach.
