The latest streets and transportation news from Streetsblog LA.

SBLA toured the Puente Hills Landfill that’s on its way to becoming a great park. Spectacular views there are publicly accessible today. Don’t just enjoy SBLA’s photos (and the county’s plans) in the post, but definitely go check it out!

Culver City is dismantling Metro-grant-fund protected bike lanes. So now Metro wants a half-million dollars of that grant money back.

Hooray for headlines: today’s and yesterday’s.

Find SBLA live coverage of this week’s Metro committee meetings at Bluesky.
