We need more cross-mountain traffic routes. It is imperative that the Reseda Boulevard extension be completed and that Mulholland Drive be paved between Reseda Boulevard and Encino Hills Drive to the east. We need to move the heavy flow of cars, and ensure the health and safety of the Encino Hills neighborhood.
