As to LA, everyone likes going to Hollywood, Downtown, PCH so its jammed, but all of LA is packed. because all the people. Its not just the 405, 101. its the 605, the 10, 710, the 91 all areas are jammed. saul guillennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7280277691673459003.post-38394401145873961502013-11-05T17:21:54.124-08:002013-11-05T17:21:54.124-08:00Taller buildings are allowed downtown, where they ...Taller buildings are allowed downtown, where they should be located. Part of the reason LA has so much traffic is due to having so many different clusters of mid-rises. That makes it impossible to serve with transit well.<br /><br />IE: If 100% of jobs where downtown, it is very easy to set up a useful transit system, as everyone is going the same way. If you spread out jobs AND housing, as Fresno is doing, it becomes impossible, so everyone drives....creating gridlock.
