Public transit in Southern California is not as popular as in other large cities, as people have to drive to get to the majority of destinations. But in Los Angeles, it’s about to get easier with a 5.5-mile-long path that people in Inglewood and South LA can use to get to many different Metro bus and rail lines.

Whether you’re in this area or you’re just visiting, this is great news for ease of transportation.

The pathway is going to be usable by those who want to walk or bike between metros, so it’s flexible and easy to use no matter how you prefer to get around.
It’s being built on old railway tracks that haven’t been used in a long time, and it will be great to revitalize it and turn it into such a useful piece of land.

It’s especially helpful that this pathway will be in historically disadvantaged communities and will aid in low-cost transportation for everyone, allowing people in the area to get around without having to have a car.
