Orange County Transportation Authority ceremonies held today celebrate public ownership of the 91 Express Lanes.

Plans are under way to add eastbound lanes at the heart of the most congested portions of the Riverside (91) Freeway now that transit officials are finally free to improve the corridor, county transportation officials said today.

More eastbound lanes will help. More westbound lanes will help.

An alternate route will help even more.

There will never be enough lanes.

With the direction taxes are headed, a lot of us may be headed eastbound...and we won't need any more westbound lanes!

Poster #4 has it right. When Dufus raises the taxes there will be a big exodus and wider East bound lanes will be needed for those fleeing Kalifornia. The West bound lanes will probably suffice and might even improve. Parley

You should be OK. However, if you get sick, you'll need to drive west to get to California for surgery.

I once lived in Chino. 91 was this four-lane highway out in the sticks. I guess it isn't anymore, eh?

Might as well make a ten-lane freeway all the way to Arizona. After Gray-out and the dims raise our taxes by $35B/year, there will surely be an exodus.

Lol. The 91 is perhaps California's longest parking lot. You need to come back and try driving from Orange County to Chino on a Friday afternoon.

More eastbound lanes...

One way to escape CA's higher taxes.

Why? How could there possibly be congestion, no one will have a job and Isn't everyone leaving California?... < /sarcasm >
