Why so much traffic congestion?

During the past decade Menifee has grown from a rural stop along Interstate 215 to the second fastest growing city in Riverside County. With growth, unfortunately, comes growing pains. As new families move to Menifee and new retails stores and restaurants open, more vehicles are making trips n Menifee's main thoroughfares. As the City works to improve infrastructure to catch up with growth, traffic congestion has become one of Menifee resident's top priorities.

Funding to improve congestion comes from increases sales tax and property tax, which is why most improvements can not be done prior to growth.

How can we improve it?

Menifee's Public Works Department is taking a two-pronged approach to address traffic congestion in Menifee: Infrastructure Improvements and Traffic Management.
