Burbank City Council members are set to hear both sides of a controversial proposal that would take half of the lanes on Olive Avenue and designate them for bus use only.
Burbank City Council members will hear opposing sides on a controversial proposal that could take half of the lanes on Olive Avenue and designate them for bus use only. The proposal is part of a 19-mile project first introduced in 2017 that seeks to create rapid bus service from North Hollywood to Pasadena, address speeding and crash concerns and improve pedestrian mobility in the area.
'So if you take away two full lanes, what's gonna happen to the rest of the vehicle traffic? It's gonna cut through the neighborhoods. It's gonna impact every other major arterial that goes through the city of Burbank.'Transportation officials say that though driving through the area made add an extra minute or two, the project would allow them to provide transit to more people overall.
