Over the last 10 years, there has been a significant change in mobility within cities, such as rideshare (such as Uber and Lyft), new bicycle facilities, bike-share and scooter-share services, and other similar small-scale systems. LA Metro and the City have also made substantial investments in transit, including the L (Gold) Line to the Atlantic Station, the planned extension of the L Line to Whitter via Washington Boulevard with a station at Greenwood Avenue, and operations of the Montebello Bus Lines. Combined, these new services and facilities have helped addressed congested streets and freeways, reduced greenhouse gases, and improved the health of the community.
To support these investments and to enhance connectivity to key destinations and transit hubs, there is the potential for localized access and mobility improvements. These could include pedestrian and bicycle projects to address safety conditions, transit enhancements to reduce delays in service, parking management to reduce parking shortfalls, and improved connectivity between modes of travel. In addition, there are new technologies that will continue to evolve how residents, employees and visitors of Montebello travel.
