Los Angeles Traffic Crisis Highlights City’s Growth Strain
Los Angeles faces a mounting traffic crisis as population and vehicle counts surge. The 1960 city population reached about 2.52 million with roughly 2.5 million daily car trips and near 2.5 million vehicle registrations in the county. Experts warn of continued growth to 4 million by 1980 and plan 278 miles of freeways under construction. A proposed rapid transit network using electric cars on concrete tracks could halve downtown to outlying trip times at an estimated $529.7 million for 74.9 miles, while officials debate funding and the viability of car pools as a solution.
