Travel times to Westwood/UCLA using the Westside Subway Extension

 

If anyone really needs a good argument why the Westside Subway Extension should be built, I think this map showing transit travel times to the Westwood/UCLA station from other parts of L.A. County makes a pretty compelling case.

The nine-mile subway extension to Westwood would seriously improve the time it takes to get to and from Westwood from many areas across Los Angeles County. At rush hour, the subway would almost certainly be the quickest way into and out of the Westside.

The map is from the Westside Subway Extension’s Final Environmental Impact Statement/Report, which was released earlier today. Here’s the news release and here’s the link to the report.
