The Happy City Coalition tweeted pictures of the banners, saying, "Widening the freeway as a 'solution' to traffic is state sanctioned violence against a predominantly Latinx community, that follows in @metrolosangeles racist practice of bulldozing Black & Latino communities for the construction of freeways and highways" and further that, "From the view of the pedestrian overpass you can see dozens of homes that will be affected if the freeway expansion goes through. Residents already breathe in polluted air, the expansion will just make it worse."
Metro is already installing on-bus cameras. Soon comes testing, outreach, then warning tickets. Wilshire/5th/6th and La Brea will be the first bus routes in the bus lane enforcement program.
