Boulevardiers! Please check out Streets For All’s call to action and lend a hand!

We did a great job getting safety improvements for ALL USERS in Eagle Rock and now we need to lend a hand to our friends and neighbors in Glendale.

Metro Los Angeles’s latest design for the North Hollywood to Pasadena BRT Project removed the protected bike lane on Glenoaks through Glendale because it would have required removal of 30% of the on-street parking spaces!

Tell Metro that it’s unacceptable to choose parking over safety, and demand they restore the protected bike lane through Glendale! Learn how to comment here: https://mailchi.mp/streetsforall/noho-pasadena-brt-072025

It's been a looooong time coming, but the BRT is almost here....!

$135M approved today will take the NoHo-Pasadena BRT project through the next two years. If this preconstruction phase goes as planned, the project will ramp up to full construction by 2027.

Tomorrow is the “Every Day is Earth Day” event put on by the Sustainability Committee of the Eagle Rock Neighborhood Council, come and check it out. Milkweed plants, shade trees & mulch will be given out, so come early!

Boulevardiers! If you can, call into to the Burbank City Transportation Committee and show your support for dedicated lanes for the NoHo-Pas BRT through that city. Their previous City Council was hostile to improvements that would make the bus actually 'rapid' and their new Council is taking up the issue again. Let's make this project a success for all of the communities!

Calling all Burbank residents 🚨 Show your support for the Noho-Pasadena BRT in Burbank! Make public comment live, in person (best) or via Zoom on Monday, January 22 at 5pm.

Anyone who thinks traffic is bad in LA should try Mexico City - but they’re moving into the future fast and car-free mobility is much easier there.

The decision of the world’s fifth-largest city to shift road space from cars to other uses has produced increasingly vibrant urban neighborhoods.

Thanks, Boulevardiers--without you, we'd never have gotten here!

The Metro Board just unanimously adopted the EIR for the BRT project including the one-car-lane option that evolved from the Beautiful Boulevard which is a huge milestone. On behalf of the entire Steering Committee, thank you for all of your time, your emails, your signature gathering, and your one-on-one conversations with neighbors and community-members. This project is going to make our community safer, greener, and more walkable which is going to be a victory for all of Eagle Rock!

So what's next? We will be keeping up pressure on Metro to follow through on its commitments to the community especially around ensuring that our small businesses are protected and that there is no undue traffic intrusion into the surrounding neighborhoods. As these issues come up, we will be posting them on this page and emailing, so you all can stay involved.

Stay positive, stay engaged, and stay committed to making Eagle Rock a great part of this great City!

A great morning for the Boulevard--Councilmember Kevin de Leon officially endorses the one-lane option!

As he correctly said in his remarks, this wouldn't have happened without ALL of you and ALL of your hard work. This is an absolutely amazing outcome for an all-volunteer, community-generated project.

Next month, this goes to the Metro committee and Board and we still need to turn out for the Zoom to finalize the project, but this is a huge, huge milestone.

A good look at electric cars and their role, and it turns out that projects like the BRT and the Beautiful Boulevard are an essential piece of the solutions toolkit!

Combustion-engine cars occupy a special place in American culture, but to reach net zero by 2050 the US needs to rethink its relationship with the automobile.

Take a moment to email our elected representatives and tell them to select the "One Lane" option for Colorado Boulevard! The choice is clear and the "One Lane" is the best for Eagle Rock:

Boulevardiers! We've posted Metro's fly-throughs that show just how much better the "one-lane", Beautiful Boulevard-inspired options is for Colorado. Let's post these far and wide so the entire City of LA can see just how much better, greener, safer, and more climate-adapted ALL of our Boulevards can be!
