Metro is meeting today to discuss the “subway to the sea,” which doesn’t exist yet. But transit to downtown does. However, higher gas prices, closed off streets and high parking fees really make going to downtown Los Angeles inconvenient on the weekends. Weekdays too. Weekdays, maybe you don't have a choice about whether to go, but you do have a choice on weekends, and that could mean you're skipping a downtown happening.
But if you use the Metro, you won't have to.
A visit to the Metro Web site will not only help you plan your trip, but it'll also let you know what's happening near a Metro station.
For example: Next month, in China Town, there will be New Year's celebration from Feb. 9 to 11. And on Feb. 24, the 2008 Amgen Tour of California bicycle race will end at the Rose Bowl, and Metro and Pasadena will provide a shuttle link from the Gold Line to the Rose Bowl.
