Advocacy groups urge Metro CEO Stephanie Wiggins and Metro Board Chair Mayor Karen Bass to “to move expediently to complete these required and promised pedestrian and bicycle improvements in the next three months”
Yesterday, livability advocates submitted a letter to Metro and L.A. City leadership urging Metro to promptly add several bike/walk facilities left out of Metro Regional Connector construction. The letter was signed by leaders of five community groups: BikeLA, Climate Resolve, MoveLA, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), and Streets For All
“Transit works best when it serves and supports great places for people,” noted Carter Rubin, Senior Transportation Lead at NRDC. “Finishing these important bike and pedestrian projects will ensure that downtown’s neighborhoods are truly connected to the Regional Connector.”
