A new “light rail on wheels” promises to cut commuters time on bus routes through the county’s busiest corridors from Los Feliz to South Los Angeles by as much as 17 minutes. Preconstruction work will soon get started on the new Vermont Avenue Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), per a notice from LA Metro. The project involves installing a 12-mile stretch along the roadway from Sunset Boulevard to 120th St by altering the existing road to allow for dedicated BRT lanes, per Metro.
