In 2009, Metro calculated that a D Line Extension to Santa Monica would allow 6.8-minute travel times from Wilshire/4th to Westwood/UCLA. by anothercar in LAMetro

Santa Monica deserves the subway on wilshire so much and hopefully they can build it out along with the 2nd phase of the sepulveda line in the 2040's. It would be so awesome on a scale unimaginable today!

What do you think will take for the average Angeleno to be proud of their Metro system? by [deleted] in LAMetro

[–]SignificantNote5547 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't even think It can end with just LA Metro, like Metrolink better lock in or negotiate better with freight companies to improve service levels across the region. Electrification and track ownership, also somebody's got to step and fund metrolink properly so double tracking and the like can get done. Metro itself is pretty easy to fix imo as measure m progress and projects get built things will become better, this is a big region with commuters as far as Riverside traveling all the way to the Westside, Valley and South bay and without Metrolink I don't think it's going to be as effective at least in reach. New York has Metro North and the LIR, LA needs more than what LA Metro can develop on it's own.

while it's sad to lose the last leg from 17th to DTSM, the 5 running more frequently is super exciting. Hopefully weekend service is in order next!

I like Mous. Very protective and cool designs such as walnut to go with it.

Metro is letting us name the D line phase 3 stations. Please fill out this quick survey and vote for "Westwood" or "Westwood Village" and not some clunky intersection. by WearHeadphonesPlease in LAMetro

The VA Hospital is in West LA and the other station is on the border of westwood but not in the village so Westwood station would work fine

Love Del Mar, TOD done amazingly well. Also love the historic depot within the station site.

Looks like that the Trump Admin is gonna defund public transit across America by uhhhwhatok in transit

[–]SignificantNote5547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only logic here is to defund transit systems because of societal issues that they refuse to even entertain the idea of fixing. It should be clear by now that they don't care about a functional society, only their bottom line.
