The Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) got City Council approval (Council File: 11-0494) to submit a project entitled "Glassel Park and Atwater Village Context-Sensitive LA River Access Master Plan and Implementation Strategy" for a Caltrans environmental justice grant.
The proposed project seeks to engage Atwater Village and Glassel Park Residents in a collaborative planning process to develop a comprehensive conceptual planning document that facilitates improvements to the pedestrian, bicycle, and transportation environment. These enhancements will address an area that is typically under-represented in planning and project development and identify concepts to improve pedestrian, bicycle and transit use to promote safer access to present and future river park infrastructure currently impeded by rail, and a revitalized human environment.
LADOT anticipates partnering with the River Revitalization Corporation, a 501(c) 3 organization. The project application seeks funding in the amount of $250,000. LADOT expects to provide the necessary local matching funds through Measure R Local Return bicycle and pedestrian program funds and/or the City's Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funds.
