Upgrade Of The South Bay Bike Trail Complete

A major upgrade and overhaul of the South Bay Bike Trail is now complete, Supervisor Don Knabe announced today. The renovated bike path is located between 62nd Avenue and Culver Boulevard in the Playa del Rey community of the City of Los Angeles.

The South Bay Bike Trail stretches nearly 22 miles between Will Rogers State Beach and Torrance County Beach, with most of the path running along public beaches. The project involved the reconstruction of the existing bike trail, including the construction of deep base to stabilize the path and new concrete pavement, and the installation of new striping and pavement markings. The total cost of the project was $431,243, with funding coming from Proposition C Local Return Funds.

“It is important that the bike paths on our beaches are safe,” said Supervisor Knabe. “These improvements will enhance the safety and increase enjoyment of the numerous residents and visitors who use the South Bay Bike Trail.”

Expressing Disappointment in Conclusion of LAX Runway Studies
Supervisor Knabe announced his disappointment in the conclusions reached by studies commissioned by Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) that called for moving the northernmost runway at LAX at least 340 feet north into the communities of Westchester and Playa del Rey. Each report came to the same conclusion with little, if any, discussion of available alternatives.
