Panel Opposes Subway Route Under Ventura Blvd.
- Share via
A Los Angeles County transit panel recommended Wednesday dropping a study of a proposed subway under Ventura Boulevard, one of three east-west San Fernando Valley rail plans under study.
The 4 to 1 vote by the Los Angles County Transportation Commission’s Planning and Mobility Committee appears likely to be upheld by the full commission next Wednesday. Final selection of a route is not expected until the end of the year.
The two other cross-Valley rail plans under review are a subway along the Southern Pacific railroad right-of-way that parallels Chandler and Victory boulevards and an elevated monorail or magnetic-levitation line along the Ventura Freeway.
