First/Last Mile Solutions

Overview

For Angelenos who live more than an easy walk away from a transit stop, public transportation is just out of reach. Los Angeles could provide first/last mile solutions that help people get to and from stations and bus stops. By providing shuttle buses, expanding bike and pedestrian access, and promoting expanded use of ridesharing apps for people trying to get to transit, we can make transit work for more people and take more cars off the road.
