In a video released Wednesday night, L.A. City Councilman Mike Bonin announced that the L.A. Department of Transportation will soon restore traffic lanes on Vista Del Mar and apologized for gridlock caused by reducing traffic to one lane in each direction.
Bonin credited L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn for allowing the city to relocate street parking to a beach lot, making the traffic lane restorations possible while still addressing safety concerns that prompted the lane reductions.
Bonin will also convene a Playa del Rey Road Safety task force to address the recent reconfiguration of Pershing Drive and portions of Culver and Jefferson Boulevards.
A town hall meeting on traffic issues scheduled for this Saturday has been cancelled.

Le’s have some more good news.
1) Restore Venice Boulevard back to the way it was before BONIN & GARCETTI got involved with their cockamamy scheme.
2)RECALL BONIN.
The changes to the light cycle seem to have fixed any problems with the project. Leave it the way it is. We need to create alternatives to being stuck in traffic. Lincoln didn’t get bike lanes and is a nightmare. The freeways are nightmares. Alternatives are necessary! Keep up the good work Bonin!
There has been a bike path paralleling Bolona Creek that takes you to the beach bike path. It’s been there for years.
This would much safer than Culver Blvd. which before changes was always a narrow street.
Just let the bikers know where and how to get on that bike path.
