Central Los Angeles has a couple of new bike lanes installed by the L.A. City Department of Transportation (LADOT). In the Westlake neighborhood, the city added just over half a mile of unprotected bike lanes on Bonnie Brae Street; these extend from Beverly Boulevard to 6th Street. They appear to be complete. Just northeast of MacArthur Park, this area sees relatively large numbers of pedestrians and those cycling for transportation.

Yesterday saw another popular iteration of CicLAvia, L.A.'s premiere open streets festival. Streets from Hollywood to Koreatown were closed to cars and opened to people on foot, bike, skate, wheelchair, and more. The five-mile route included iconic portions of Wilshire Boulevard, Vine Street, Western Avenue, and Santa Monica Boulevard. Tens of thousands of Angelenos of all ages and abilities took to the quiet car-free streets. Readers - how was your CicLAvia yesterday?
