Thanks for the update on the 7th street streetscape scape. It really feels like LA is trying to change to being more pedestrian friendly and having safer roads for all. We have a long way to go but changes are being made in chunks. Hopefully we keep up the momentum.

Two easy changes that we need to see that cost almost no money are in traffic signaling. The first is to desynchronize the traffic lights so that people aren't flying down roads to catch a series of green lights. Traffic was calmer before traffic lights were synchronized decades ago. The second change is to have traffic lights stay green for cars a few seconds after the signal changes to "don't walk" for pedestrians. Like they do in NYC and most of the USA.
