11/01/2007: "Rail Corridor, Park, Bike Paths Coming to West Los Angeles?"
Just read a delightful proposal from residents of Cheviot Hills--not previously known as a hotbed of transit activism--for augmenting a section of the Expo Line light rail system that has just begun construction by integrating bicycle and walking paths and a liner park with daylighted streams (now hidden in storm drains) that would provide native plant and animal habitat and recharge groundwater. It's a well-thought-out and clearly expressed paper that we strongly recommend to all. This could prove to be even more significant and useful than the Orange Line BRT transitway's bikepath and parkway.
Contains references to other augmented transitways and daylighted creeks in the LA area. Go to:
