Yesterday saw another popular iteration of CicLAvia, L.A.'s premiere open streets festival.

Streets from Hollywood to Koreatown were closed to cars and opened to people on foot, bike, skate, wheelchair, and more. The five-mile route included iconic portions of Wilshire Boulevard, Vine Street, Western Avenue, and Santa Monica Boulevard.

Tens of thousands of Angelenos of all ages and abilities took to the quiet car-free streets.

“The ONT Connector is an inappropriate investment. Ridership capacity and public transportation utility do not support spending billions of dollars for it. Scrapping the project is the right decision. Electric rail to ONT is the appropriate decision,” per The Transit Coalition
