Just Paint It

Easy Reader Letter to the Editor - 6/15/23

Dear ER:

If Beach Cities Health District was serious about adding a bike lane to Flagler Lane, it could be done tomorrow with some paint (“On Local Government: Proposed bike path missed the cut off,” ER June 8, 2023). The fact is BCHD only wanted to pursue this project because it would have added a sidewalk to the west side of Flagler, allowing for access to their “Wealthy Living Campus.” Tom Bakaly told the Torrance Traffic Commission that a bike lane on Flagler is consistent with the South Bay Bicycle Master Plan. If you bother to actually read the Plan however, it is not.
