Las Virgenes Road Corridor Master Plan
The Las Virgenes Road Corridor Master Plan is a long-range planning document that makes recommendations for beautification, circulation and traffic improvements for Las Virgenes Road. The scope of the plan includes Las Virgenes Road from Mulholland Highway on the south end to the Ventura County line on the north end.
