Los Angeles Mass Transit System: Success Or Failure?
[ send me this essay ]
8 pages in length. The overpopulated state of Los Angeles and surrounding counties was the definitive directive that began political administrators looking more closely at the broad issue of transportation (Simburger, 1998). According to Scott L. Bottles, author of Los Angeles and the Automobile: The Making of the Modern City, Southern Californians began a love affair with private vehicles that would eventually create a crisis situation where transit was concerned; not only did automobiles provide a sense of freedom and independence, but they also equipped individuals with more advantageous economic choices over trains or street cars. In short, it was the general populace that long resisted – and therefore did not patronize to any great extent – the various forms of mass transit alternatives made available to the traveling public. However, times have changed and so have once-stubborn attitudes, inevitably instilling a brand new – and positive – perspective with regard to contemporary options. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
