I don’t understand why every design for this is so overcomplicated. This should just be a simple extension of grand park next door. No buildings or parking, just grass, shade, and maybe tables or a fountain. No need to cram in temporary parking, sports med, and a gallery… Fixed it for them:

Update some green showing in the conflict stripping this morning!
They may not be full protected bike lanes (yet) but excited existing bike lanes in #WeHo are getting the high visibility green treatment soon! The temporary markings out on the streets show where future green paint will go shortly. 🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲 #bikelanws
No promises but we’re already looking into it.
These would be just east of WeHo, but would speed up transit + improve reliability on Metro route 2 to/from #WeHo during rush hour similar to the recent La Brea lanes. I’m excited to see more of these going in & could not be more supportive. 🚌💨🤩

Flying out of Burbank for the first time in awhile today. Nice to see the progress on the replacement terminal. I’ll miss the short walk from the Metrolink station, but thankful there still won’t be jet bridges so we’ll keep the novelty of walking up to the plane. 🛫🚞 🤓
End of an era! Stopped by the City maintenance yard to pick up the last sign for a speed limit above 30 mph in WeHo today! Thinking I’ll put this up at my desk and use it as a zoom background… 🧐
No arts district B/D Line station?
I’ve definitely had my own share of close calls on Fountain so I get it! Many more safety improvements in the works thankfully.
Not a fan of being recorded, but I am proud we were able to reduce speed limits Citywide in WeHo. Fountain was the first major street to go from 35mph to the new Citywide max of 30mph (the other major streets have since followed) and much bigger changes are in the works!

Not sure when google maps added these transit direction Home Screen and Dynamic Island widgets but they’re pretty cool! 🚇 🗺️🤩
Obviously I’m all for high speed rail in this country and we should do better but old school sleeper trains are there own kind of experience if you’re not in a rush. Nothing like taking in the scenery from a cozy cabin and doing little excursions to the lounge or dining car.
Our quest to ride all the long distance Amtraks continues with the Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle! 🚞
Rode the last of the interurbans while we were in Chicago! The US used to have 1,500 interurban lines between cities and towns covering 16,000 miles of track and only this 90 mile line in Indiana and Illinois remains operating more like commuter rail these days.🚃🤓
Finally biked the lakefront trail to Hollywood Beach! As an Angeleno, lake beaches are confusing but the trail was great!
Omg of course forgot about the holiday… 🤦🏼♂️ Thank you!
Can any Chicago folk weigh in on the SSL website and google disagreeing on eastbound departure times? 10:30 & 11:45 departures don’t seem to exist in google maps? Always wanted to take the South Shore Line (the last interurban!) and have a friend in Indiana we’re debating getting coffee with Monday
@ladotofficial.bsky.social testing out upgraded protected bike lane barriers around the corner from us. Concrete is so much more protective than flimsy plastic bollards or paint. Take their survey and tell them these are great and we need them citywide here: form.typeform.com/to/mKQsn7LQ?...
Denali National Park has a pretty cool ‘lil bus system dating back to the 70’s. It’s less pleasant in the rain though… 😅🚌🏔️
Highly encourage any WeHo or nearby residents to come to this community meeting on Tuesday! We'll be sharing the latest on the City's first protected bike lanes and other safety improvements. 🚲📆✌🏻
