Car Congestion

Damien Will Be on KPCC’s Air Talk at 10:44 A.M. Talking Tolling and Congestion Pricing

(Update, 1:08 p.m. - As Erik Griswold notes below, you can find the audio right here.)

Our former editor and still-regular-contributor Damien Newton will be on Air Talk with Larry Mantle at 10:44 today discussing the possibility of changing the car pool requirements and toll prices on L.A. County's congested HOT Lanes. The Los Angeles Times reported last week that Metro will be studying options to increase traffic speeds in the overly congested lanes.

Joining Newton and Mantle will be Harvey Rosenfield, founder of Consumer Watchdog, a consumer and taxpayer advocacy group in Santa Monica.

You can listen in on our conversation at 89.3 F.M. on your radio dial or at KPCC's website. We will post a direct link to the audio this afternoon.
