For transit policies, the City of Loma Linda plans to achieve the following:
Montclair
• Ensure that the site design of new developments provides for pedestrian access
to existing and future transit routes and transit centers through specific review
during the development review process.
• Preserve options for future transit use when designing roadway and highway
improvements.
• When applicable, include Omnitrans in the review of new development projects,
and require new development to provide transit improvements in proportion to
traffic demands created by the project. Transit improvements may include direct
and paved access to transit stops; provision of bus turnout areas and bus
shelters; and roadway geometric designs to accommodate bus traffic.
• Encourage ridership on public transit through use of city information sources
(e.g., City website and mail-outs) to provide information on transit services.
• Require community care facilities and large age-restricted developments (50
units or more, but excluding facilities designed for “active” adults) to provide
transportation services for the convenience of residents as a condition of
development.
New development plans are proposed at the Montclair Transcenter and along Fremont Avenue for
pedestrian-friendly access and shuttle services to provide good linkage. 55% of Montclair’s land use is
classified as residential and only 9% is commercially zoned.
The existing commercial and industrial land uses north of I-10 and between Holt Boulevard and Mission
Boulevard attract many people. Residential neighborhoods are predominant in the southern portion of
the I-10 Freeway up to Holt Boulevard.
The City is planning to continue commercial plans typically along the following arterials:
• Mission Boulevard
• Holt Boulevard
• Large portion of Central Avenue
• Monte Vista Avenue
