The 10 Freeway Closure Shows That We Can Rethink Our Commutes

#182: Update: The freeway is open----The 10 Freeway is shutdown for a few weeks due to fire damage. The closure has disrupted the commute of hundreds of thousands of daily commuters...but people are adjusting. How To LA podcast host Brian De Los Santos traveled to the area near Alvarado where the freeway is closed to test the traffic flow himself and talk to folks who work around there and are feeling the impact. He also speaks to Marlon Boarnet, an urban planning professor at USC, about how the fix it plan may resemble the response to damage sustained in the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and what it means to communities more broadly to have a freeway, much less a broken one, cut through it. Guest: Marlon Boarnet, Professor of Public Policy and Spatial Analysis at USC's Price School Of Public Policy and Director of the METRANS Transportation Consortium at USC.
