Here’s This Week’s Videos:

Tuesday: Streetsblog Los Angeles visited Santa Monica, arguably the most bike-friendly city in the southern half of the state. The first stop is at new curb-protected bike lanes under construction on Broadway and on Colorado Avenue – next to the Metro E Line light rail.

Wednesday: A couple of weeks ago, Streetsblog California covered a UCLA Institute of Transportation study on the disputed definition of “Major Transit Stops.” Check out the study for informative story maps. This week, SBCA did a short video on the same subject. What the heck is a major transit stop?!?

Friday: Back in Santa Monica (who doesn’t like a good sequel?), the Streetsblog L.A. team circles one of the best intersections in California, a legendary “protected intersection” where two protected bike lane facilities meet at 17th Street and Broadway. Watch out Amsterdam!

@streetsblogla8

Is this the best intersection in Southern California? At least bike-wise! 17th and Broadway in #SantaMonica
