Officials in Metro Los Angeles Prefer Concrete for Street Awaiting Light Rail Stations

City officials in Santa Monica, CA, recently recommended that half a million dollars be spent to improve intersections currently under construction for an incoming light rail station. All five intersections are along Colorado Avenue where track is being laid. The current plan is to surround the tracks with concrete but finish the streets with asphalt. City officials say it would be better if the entire intersections were done in concrete — and done now.
