Culver City Dedication of Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project, Friday

Culver City will dedicate the Jefferson Boulevard Streetscape and Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements project near the Baldwin Hills Overlook Friday morning

To celebrate the completion of the Jefferson Boulevard Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project, the City of Culver City is inviting the public to a dedication ceremony on Fri. Jan. 18 at 10 a.m. at the small parking lot on Jefferson Boulevard, just west of the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook Entrance at Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road. 

The Jefferson Boulevard Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project has created a more comfortable way for cyclists and pedestrians to access the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook and the surrounding area. 

Some of the specific improvements that were completed as part of this project include:

  • A new traffic signal with high visibility crosswalks at the intersection of Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road;
  • Curb extensions at the intersection of Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road;
  • Sidewalks filling the gap in existing sidewalks on Jefferson Boulevard near the entrance to the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook;
  • Raised landscaped median islands on Jefferson Boulevard near the entrance to the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook;
  • Bike lanes from approx. Duquesne Avenue to Holdrege Avenue;
  • and improvements to the small parking lot area where the City is holding the ceremony

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

Maybe more to the point, where does the methane (way more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas)Read More release go from the fracking process, where do the "secret"and other cancer causing chemicals go, and who pays for clean-up costs, increased healthcare costs of residents nearby, possible increased earthquake damage, etc. and where does this oil go (we can't use it--too dirty--so probably China)?

As I understand it, fracking wells "dry up" fairly quickly, which is why pressure to keepRead More drilling so urgent. Where do the jobs go after a year or so? Just a thought....
