Villaraigosa Staffer to Discuss “30 in 10” Plan at So.CA.TA. Monthly Meeting

The Long Range Transportation Plan recently adopted by the Metro Board
of Directors incorporates many public transportation projects which
would be funded with the sales tax revenue from Measure R, including an
extension of the Purple Line subway to Westwood, an extension of the
Gold Line to Azusa, the downtown light rail Regional Connector, a Green
Line extension to Torrance, and new rail lines in the Crenshaw and
Harbor Subdivision corridors. The Mayor's plan would seek new sources
of flexible funding to complete the major projects of the 30-year LRTP
in the space of one decade.
