- gtdawg 8y agoWe just spent a lot on that. [1] Are you not seeing results? What additonal work would you like to see? [1] https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/20/us/los-angeles-drivers-on-the-405-ask-was-1-6-billion-worth-it.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/20/us/los-angeles-drivers-on...
- carlivar 8y agoI would like to see more than two lanes on the 405-101 interchange lanes, and dedicated carpool lanes for this interchange plus 405-10.
- trashguy 8y agoInstead of adding lanes, they should have added some useable public transportation like a light rail. There is 2million~ people living in the SFV and all it has is a stupid bus line that goes to the red line. Light rail that connects the SFV to West LA and LAX would be a huge improvement. It doesn't help that Los Angeles city government is incompetent and the rich in Bel Air and Bev hills like to throw wrenches in everything.
- DuskStar 8y agoA Sepulveda Pass-LAX subway is supposedly coming eventually!
- woolvalley 8y agoWouldn't it be better for it to start at the orange line busway stop around the Sepulveda station, or is that it's start point? Is there a page about this 405 highway train plan somewhere?
- DuskStar 8y agoMetro has some pages about it: [0][1] It's still very much in planning stages though, thus the "eventually" in my comment. Might be the same "eventually" as the Purple line making it to UCLA, or it might be the same "eventually" as high-speed rail between LA and SF. I'm hoping for the former... 0: https://thesource.metro.net/2018/06/07/rail-concepts-released-for-sepulveda-transit-corridor/ https://thesource.metro.net/2018/06/07/rail-concepts-release... 1: https://www.metro.net/projects/sepulvedacorridor/ https://www.metro.net/projects/sepulvedacorridor/
