Seems like advertising

This was in the article before I removed it: "Some of the big engineering firms which have worked on El Toro Y over a period of time are Moffatt & Nichol and RTEA."

with a link to the Moffatt & Nichol website, not a wikipedia-internal link.

@Thellomerca: Thank you. Looking at Special:Contributions/Htechnobrian it is concerning. --Rschen7754 00:24, 18 September 2019 (UTC)

Toll roads/bypass road relevance

I'm not sure whether the following paragraphs are relevant to THIS article: "Another parallel road to the El Toro Y is the proposed extension of SR 241, the Foothill Toll Road. The future extension would be known as "Los Patrones Parkway" and will currently end near SR 74.

Originally [when?], the route [is this the Los Patrones Parkway?] was supposed to connect to I-5 in northern San Diego County, but local opposition regarding environmental issues near Trestles have put the project on hold. In 2017, the Transportation Corridor Agencies considered extending this route to San Clemente. But residents opposed it because the proposed route would have cost $2 billion, would have intersected at the busiest interchange in San Clemente, Avenida Pico, would have demolished many new homes with real estate value, would have been constructed next to a high school, and would waste taxpayers money because the interchange had undergone improvements between 2015 and 2018. Local residents also say that traffic would be worse, equivalent to the SR 91 and SR 241 interchange."

It seems like it hasn't come to pass, which seems like it's not super relevant to this article.
