North Sierra Highway Strategic Plan

The North Sierra Highway Strategic Plan is the result of a collaborative effort by the County of Inyo and the City of Bishop to provide coordinated guidance for mobility, development, and public realm improvements over time. The Plan functions as a strategic plan and brings forward mobility recommendations from previous efforts and expands on strategies for key opportunity sites that offer near-term development potential. Several community engagement efforts were conducted to assist the project team in identifying issues, vetting ideas, and prioritizing recommendations. To support engagement of implementing agencies, the North Sierra Highway Corridor Plan Advisory Committee (Advisory Committee) was formed including representatives from County of Inyo, City of Bishop, Bishop Paiute Tribe, Caltrans, Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, Tri-County Fairgrounds, Eastern Sierra Transit Authority, Eastern Sierra Community Services District, and Bishop Rural Fire Protection District. An implementation section is included that identifies specific actions to address opportunity sites, phasing, funding sources, and Specific Plan development
