Will traffic increase with the construction of new homes at Savi Ranch?

The most recent traffic analysis conducted in 2023 indicates that Savi Ranch can accommodate up to 850 additional housing units before reaching an unacceptable level of traffic. The proposed housing plan allows for approximately 800 new units; however, those new housing units (if constructed) would likely replace existing retail space and its associated traffic. The City of Yorba Linda Traffic Commission also reviewed the Traffic Analysis (TA) prepared for the Revised 2021-2029 Housing Element, which indicates that the proposed rezoning in the Housing Element will not cause traffic conditions to fall below acceptable service conditions. Now, the Planning Commission will look over the comments and recommendations to ensure that the proposed rezoning aligns with the General Plan and zoning code amendments within the Housing Element.
