New data point on the seriousness of the @metrolosangeles homelessness crisis: In less than a month, transit officials found 42 people in the parts of Red Line stations that are closed to the public (emergency exit stairwells, traction power room, etc.) -- but are warm and dry.— Laura J.

Another fact nugget now in my brain: The average speed of a local bus on Vermont Ave. is 9 mph during rush hour. The average speed of the "rapid" is 11.5 mph.— Laura J. Nelson 🦅 (@laura_nelson) June 16, 2018
