Local News in Brief : Freeway Decks Endorsed
An upper deck on portions of the Ventura, Hollywood and San Diego freeways and a new north-south freeway in the west San Fernando Valley were among the proposals endorsed Monday by a committee of Valley-elected officials and civic leaders.
The upper decks would be toll roads and would also carry light-rail lines under the plan tentatively approved by the San Fernando Valley Area Transportation Study Committee, an advisory group of more than 50 officials created by the Legislature to propose solutions to the Valley’s traffic problems.
