I enthusiastically support protected bike lanes between Dufour and Marine along Vail and Redondo Beach Avenues.
However, I do not think it is advisable to provision more parking as we are currently providing free airport parking along RB Ave.
Because Metro has a 3-day, 72-hour limit on parking in their lots, people taking the K line to LAX are parking on RB Ave for free instead. I met someone from Pasadena, who upon learning that I was from Redondo Beach, thanked me for his free airport parking. I asked him what he did about street sweeping hours. He said that the cost of a street sweeping ticket was less than the cost of a day of parking at LAX.
He said it was an open secret at his workplace to park there for travel.
As a Redondo Beach resident who bikes to the train station, I think that my safety is more important than providing free airport parking for someone in Pasadena. Pasadena charges for overnight parking and only residents are allowed to purchase overnight parking. We should consider doing the same.
More bike lanes and no more LAX free parking.
thank-you,
Grace Peng
