We recently took community members to South LA to explore Metro’s new Rail to Rail Active Transportation Project, a first-of-its-kind project funded through the Safe Clean Water Program.
The 5.5-mile path connects neighborhoods, parks, schools, and local business corridors along the way. Designed for everyone, the path welcomes bikes, scooters, skateboards, strollers, and wheelchairs, while keeping motor vehicles off the route. Benches, shaded areas, landscaping, and water fountains make the path a space for the community to enjoy.
Our community had a great time experiencing the project in person and learning more about what it can bring to the neighborhoods it connects. We hope to see more projects like this that create accessible, welcoming spaces for communities across Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley.
