Sacramento Region 511 Traveler Information System Update

The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) is a voluntary association of governments and a Joint Powers Authority under California Government Code Section 6500 et seq. Member jurisdictions include 22 cities and six counties: the County of Sacramento (including the cities of Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt, Isleton, Rancho Cordova and Sacramento); the County of Yolo (including the cities of Davis, West Sacramento, Winters, and Woodland); the County of Sutter (including the cities of Live Oak and Yuba City); the County of Yuba (including the cities of Marysville and Wheatland); Placer County (including the cities of Auburn, Colfax, Lincoln, Rocklin, Roseville and Town of Loomis) and El Dorado County (including the City of Placerville). SACOG is the federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the six-county Sacramento region, including the counties of Sacramento, Sutter, Yolo, Yuba, El Dorado, and Placer. SACOG is also the state designated Regional Transportation Planning Agency (RTPA) for the counties of Sacramento, Yolo, Sutter and Yuba. The Capital Valley Region Service Authority for Freeways and Expressways (CVR-SAFE) was established in the mid-1980’s between Sacramento, Yolo, Yuba, and San Joaquin Counties to develop, operate, and maintain a motorist aid system, which includes the existing traveler information system.
