Playa Vista Master Plan


The Playa Vista project is a mixed use project consisting of approximately 5,800 dwelling units, 3.8 million square feet of commercial and studio uses, 200,000 square feet of retail and 50,000 square feet of community serving uses. These elements include a Travel Demand Management Program, a Transit Enhancement Program including provision of an internal shuttle system, a Highway Improvement Program and a Bicycle Master Plan. As part of this transportation analysis, Raju utilized state-of-the-art GIS and travel demand forecasting techniques to provide innovative and effective transportation analysis options and solutions to the planning process.

The access and circulation plan involved determining the sizes of internal and external roadways, corridors and intersections; enhancement requirements for the Phase I internal shuttle system components, a mass transportation plan including enhancement of service along existing bus routes, new routes and new service, transit/multi-nodal centers development and system connectivity improvements; bicycle and pedestrian circulation element, and a parking system plan.

Technical feasibility of these roadway and intersection improvements was established by overlaying the improvement proposals on aerial photos and determining right-of-way availability and requirements. Further, Raju Associates, Inc. worked with numerous jurisdictions’ requirements and the environmental team to prepare the Transportation Section of the Draft EIR for the second phase of the project.
