    Most excited about the Metro Rail and Metrolink SCORE projects because only they can mitigate traffic congestion, smog & GHG emissions.

      Nah. Not only they can mitigate traffic congestion, smog & GHG emissions. Not “only they can mitigate traffic congestion, smog & GHG emissions.” /

      The LAX People Mover connection to the K and C line will also help to reduce traffic.
      For example, I live near Downey. I will be able to pickup and drop-off people at the Norwalk C line station. No need to go all the way to LAX. And the passengers have a straight shot, one seat ride to the LAX People Mover. That's huge!

      Yeah, I remember when the red line first opened and it only went as far as WIlshire and Western. A subway to nowhere. It turns out rich ppl in Beverly Hills blocked the expansion down Wilshire to the beach. Glad it's finally happening.

    Good video though you left off 2 additional significant projects. The new Clippers basketball arena currently under construction. And, the new LACMA museum which is also under construction and will be accessible via the new D subway line extention station at Fairfax mentioned in this video.
    There are many exciting projects happening in the LA region right now.

    LA needs to reduce the number of car lanes and give that space back to people and transit, like it traditionally used to be. The experiment of turning every street into a highway didn't work. It just made traffic worse and killed thousands of people. Enough is enough.

      It's being done. In fact, the measure HLA was recently approved by voters. It's an initiative that requires the city to redesign streets to be safer for pedestrian and bicyclists while holding city officials accountable.

    This video seems a bit dated. Anyway, what is an LAX "LANDSLIDE" project (5:06) ??? The Los Angeles area is known for landslides because of all its hills and seasonal rains, but they're not building landslides. :/

    • @mrxman581
      @mrxman581 7 місяців тому +1

      It's Landside, not landslide.
      It's a multi-billion Landside Access Modernization Program (LAMP) for LAX.

    5:07 LAX Landslide Project? Please correct this, that is embarrassing.

      At any other Airport it would be Land SIDE but this is LA which has earthquakes so SLIDE is more accurate

      I live here, it's great but bring a shitload of cash because good fucking god it's expensive. If you want to live comfortably in any of these places in a one bedroom apartment plan on making 125k with no debt.

      ​@@shane864It depends. Search for a place close to a station on the LA Metro network that is not on the Westside. You can live fine on much less than 125k.

    LOLOLOL at a "car free lifestyle" in Los Angeles. More clueless planners who hate cars but can't propose or build any sort of affordable or useable alternative. The related project is going to be an absolute disaster because of the lack of parking.

      We need to make streets more walkable which would complement an expanding LA Metro system.
