LAWA working on new traffic plan for the ring road
According to the project status report from April 2016 (latest available online), LAWA has a project in the planning stage to implement mode separation and do away with the ridiculous double circulation of rental car and hotel shuttle buses.
The brief description on page 30 of the report says the plan is to have rental car shuttle do pick up AND drop off at upper level, and hotel shuttles to do the same only at the lower level.
This is a fantastic idea and I have pointed out many times here that LAWA can reduce traffic by 50% with just a simple change like this. The current double circulation system where shuttle buses make 2 circles every time they enter the ring road is grossly inefficient use of the roadway.
Let's hope this project gets fast tracked!
