Hello! I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m a designer in 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网授权 excited by all the new rail infrastructure being built here. I decided to make a map showing what the Metro network might look like in 30 years assuming generous transit funding. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s my 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划time designing a map this complex so I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m definitely curious for y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts.
The new lines are mostly built from pieces and combinations of current plans, including a finished California High-Speed Rail and a network of Bus Rapid Transit corridors. All told, this map existing would cost somewhere around $40 billion and mean 8 new capital projects, and expediting 5 projects that are currently planned for completion after 2050.

There🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a lot to like about Josh🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s map, both in its design and in its optimism for the future. The network of light grey dotted lines underneath the main routes — which I originally simply took as an indication of LA🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s street grid — indicates an extensive BRT network with 15-minute-or-less headways. In Josh🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s future, the California High-Speed Rail is fully built out, Metrolink is electrified, and there are just 16 gas stations left in all of 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网授权 County. Quite the vision!
Design-wise, the influence of the official LA Metro map and corporate identity is hard to ignore, but I think Josh has done well to adapt and improve upon it to accommodate his concept. The downtown area is particularly clear and easy to understand, even after the addition of the Regional Connector. Turning Union Station into its own large “infobox” is a particularly smart choice — it gives the most important part of the network more prominence on the nap, and it looks much neater than trying to cobble together a lot of connected interchange icons. I also like the more natural path that the so-called 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网授权 River takes across the map: it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s always seemed just a little too🔸澳洲幸运10预测 straight on the 168澳洲十开奖网 to me since they started including it.
Minor problems: the green “parkland” areas of the background seem a little dark and heavy, and the southern branch of the gold “E” line in East LA needs a curve as it exits Atlantic station to indicate which direction trains go in, specially for inbound services (do they go towards Union Station, or are they a shuttle to Peck? It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a little ambiguous at the moment).
The final word:🔸澳洲幸运10预测 Probably one of the nicest-looking “future LA” 澳洲10开官网开奖 I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve seen, and there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been a few of them! F🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划stars.
I wonder, too, if highlighting the freeways a bit differently than major roads might be helpful.
I really like the Venice beach to Dodger stadium idea. Right now there are plans to bend the Crenshaw north line with some pushing for a spur line.. But in the current public comment phase the spur line is losing badly. A map like this would definitely help the spur gain popularity as it shows the possibility of a cool fully built out line.
Can you please submit this map to the comments for the Crenshaw North extension? The La Brea route for the extension makes perfect sense if you build a Santa Monica spur, but the spur line has no sex appeal. Y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划Venice to Dodge stadium line would make the spur option much more popular than it currently is. Then the spur could be extended east and west as depicted in y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划🔸澳洲幸运10在线人工计划网 once funding becomes available.
