While there isn’t a way to eliminate all fire risk, TCA takes important steps to prevent and mitigate wildfires. The Agencies partner with multiple organizations, such as the Orange County Fire Authority and Caltrans, to clear vegetation and create defensible spaces and buffers that serve as areas for first responders to fight wildfires when they occur. TCA also participates in the Orange County Fire Watch program, which alerts the public to elevated fire danger in or near wilderness parks and communities across Orange County. Additionally, earlier this week, OCFA used The Toll Roads facilities as a staging area for firefighters battling the blaze.
The Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) are two joint powers authorities formed by the California legislature in 1986 to plan, finance, construct and operate Orange County’s public toll road system comprised of the 73, 133, 241 and 261 Toll Roads.
