Inland Valley Infrastructure Corridor (IVIC) Project

“Since its formation in 1990, the Inland Valley Development Agency (IVDA) has always collaborated with its member agencies and many other economic development and transportation organizations.  The Inland Valley Infrastructure Corridor (IVIC) was yet another IVDA regional project seeking to align and address public safety, transportation, and infrastructure opportunities since the closure of Norton Air Force Base in 1994.

IVDA, in coordination with multiple agencies, has worked to advance the IVIC project in a comprehensive effort to ameliorate the dilapidated roadway, utility, and drainage infrastructure north of the former base.   While working across and through the requirements of two (2) municipal jurisdictions, the IVIC project focused on a combined approach to develop and deploy a regional project that could help magnify and accelerate Federal, State, and local grant funds to improve the IVIC Corridor for the long-term benefit of our residents, businesses, and the travelling public.

Unfortunately, not everyone agrees that public infrastructure funds should be deployed for public infrastructure purposes.  The IVDA remains committed to the successful revitalization of the former Norton Air Force Base and surrounding Base Reuse Project Area and will continue to work in partnership with our member and responsible agencies for a better future for our region.he Inland Valley Development Agency (IVDA) has facilitated coordination of a number of infrastructure improvements within the Inland Valley Infrastructure Corridor (IVIC) project area with the participating agencies working with IVDA to implement this project. Improvements to the following infrastructure systems will be considered in the IVIC EIR: water; wastewater/sewer; dry utilities, including communications; drainage; roads; and other future utility integration (accommodate other utilities/emerging technologies that can be integrated concurrently with above infrastructure improvements).
