Two Weeks After Anniversary of Fatal Malibu Crash, City Could Reject PCH Safety Improvements - Streetsblog Los Angeles

The city is about to spend $2B+ to make traffic *worse* at LAX. We could do so much with that money, but instead we’re about to light it on fire with a freeway-style interchange in front of the airport, undercutting our transit investments.

Important to remember that not only did we pass #SB79, the biggest transit-oriented upzoning bill ever, we also passed a clean CEQA exemption for new multifamily infill housing.
This is, bar none, the biggest year in state action on housing policy reform in California history. Not even close.
