It won't do enough to relieve our problems. My other post linked into this addressed the need for 405 relief as well. I in fact agree with the need for something through Weho to WLA/Santa Monica.

That is where the most population density is. Sorry to the SG Valley but the densist part of the region is the Wilshire corridor. It is the densist region in the nation that does not have a rail line. That is where the next project should be built. Not the extension of the Gold Line in the SG Valley. That will have to wait. I do agree that the Downtown oriented transit is overdone. There should be rail lines that go along other corridors such as the Westside along the 405.
