Tuesday – SCAG’s Toolbox Tuesdays is back with a session on Parking Systems Management. You can join them in their Downtown offices or online. All the details are here.

Friday-Sunday – Santa Monica’s annual expo of the best in more environmentally friendly cars rides again. Non-profit row is a good place to see a lot of L.A.’s best transit advocates. Get the details, here.

No Parking No Shopping

Where do the people at SCAG park their cars in downtown LA?

Many take transit. For those that drive there are 4 paid parking lots along Flower between 7th and 8th. With prices that range between $6-9/day

Actually the non-profit participation at alt car has wilted up as they no longer can afford to provide free booths to groups. Transit is represented by Big Blue Bus and Metro. And there is a bike panel Saturday morning.

A correction — the event is only on Friday-Saturday.
