News: 

  • Last week I attended the California Transit Association (CTA) conference, held at the Pasadena Convention Center. It was a great opportunity to learn about what's going on in the world of public transportation in California. Since Metro replaced Sierra Madre's bus service with Metro's microtransit service MetroMicro, the Transportation Subcommittee has been working on ways to improve transit service in town, since microtransit may not meet all of Sierra Madre's transit needs. I made some valuable contacts with local transit agencies and will be working with the Transportation Subcommittee to see what transit services these agencies may have to offer Sierra Madre. Oh, and my ebike + Metro A (Gold) Line commute helped me beat the traffic and high parking prices!
