The SGV Connect Newsletter is brought to you by Streetsblog California and is supported by Foothill Transit, offering car-free travel throughout the San Gabriel Valley with connections to the new Gold Line Stations across the Foothills and Commuter Express lines traveling into the heart of downtown L.A. To plan your trip, visit Foothill Transit. “Foothill Transit. Going Good Places.”

Welcome to the new format for the SGV Connect Newsletter. A quick note on the new format: first we’ll be posting a headlines stack similar to the “Today’s Headlines” you see at Streetsblog Every morning. Below that, we’ll have the Streetsblog stories that are most relevant to the San Gabriel Valley community from the past week. I hope you enjoy the new format and find it useful.

All the Best,
Damien
