"LA Mayor Promotes Public Transit Amid Commuting Nightmare, Urges Commuters to Avoid Surface Streets and Highlights Towing Fee Controversy"
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass rode the Metro's E line to work to promote public transportation amid the traffic nightmare caused by the 10 Freeway fire. The city has implemented measures to speed up E line and Metrolink trains, added more buses to heavily delayed routes, and made CommuterExpress and LADOT Dash buses free. Additional traffic officers will be dispatched to assist commuters during the wet weather.
