The Metro-funded Robertson Bus/Bike Lane project, which spans between Washington and Venicec Boulevards, includes:

  • Protected bike lanes that improve cyclist safety and connectivity
  • Five dedicated bus layover bays serving Culver CityBus, Big Blue Bus, and Metro Los Angeles
  • A widened sidewalk on the east side of Robertson Boulevard to improve pedestrian comfort and accessibility
  • Removal of a right-turn slip lane at Robertson and Washington Boulevards to reduce vehicle-pedestrian conflict points
  • Installation of stormwater treatment basins to improve water quality
  • Planting of new trees to enhance the streetscape and provide shade

“These are grant dollars at work, improving safety for people who like to bike and walk in between our Downtown and Art District, especially with accessing the Metro line at Ivy Station and Platform,” said Culver Cty Mayor Dan O’Brien in a news release. “This connectivity continues our commitment to providing safe transportation access for everyone.”

Concurrent with the debut of the Robertson Boulevard project, Culver City officials have also announced their support for Alternatives 4 and 5 of the Sepulveda Transit Corridor project, which would connect the Westside to the San Fernando Valley with rail service. Alternatives 4 and 5 are both heavy rail subway options, while other alternative other consideration would involve the construction of a monorail system.
