Abstract
Anaheim, California is the site of the Institute of Transportation Engineers 2008 Annual Meeting and Exhibit. The southern California area, which can be described as a mega-metropolitan area, has a complex system of transportation networks that includes ports, regional rail, metro rail, express bus, bus rapid transit, freeways and toll roads. This article describes present land-use patterns in southern California and highlights some of the most impressive transportation-related sites in the region, including a smart parking structure, historical freeways, the metro line to Hollywood, and a 14-mile exclusive busway.
