Wednesday – Have we mentioned that the D-Line Subway extension opened today in Los Angeles? Have we mentioned that Streetsblog L.A. is going to test that line with a commuter race? We have? Good. In that case, you can meet the participants in the race in this week’s preview; more on them next week. (Also, shoutout to our sponsors: Cohen Law Partners, the David Bohnett Foundation, and Hayden AI.)
Friday – Some of California governor’s candidates are talking about suspending the gas tax during the latest price spike tied to the war with Iran. Some said yes, some said no. But if the state does suspend the gas tax, that’s going to lead to a lot of unpaid bills.
Friday – L.A. Metro opened a new subway! The four-mile three-station D Line extension section 1 is carrying people across the city, and quick! L.A. is riding the D, and it’s a big deal. For more D-tails, see Streetsblog L.A. coverage or Joe Linton’s live thread recapping the long D Day.
