December 24, 2001 YAROSLAVSKY ANNOUNCES RENEWAL OF Board of Supervisors
Chairman Zev Yaroslavsky has announced that the Board of Supervisors has approved the
continuation of the program for park-and-ride and shuttle service to the Hollywood Bowl
from 15 area parking lots throughout the County for the 2002 summer season. "I invite all concertgoers to take full advantage of the public transportation available for these performances, so we can ease traffic congestion near the Bowl, conserve energy and cut down air pollution," Yaroslavsky said. Yaroslavsky noted that
the Board-approved program to ease traffic congestion and provide low-cost transportation
for residents of the County to the Hollywood Bowl was launched 28 summers ago. Riders will be charged
$2.50 each way from remote lots and $3.00 round trip from nearby parking lots, while
parking at the lots is free. Last year, Yaroslavsky said, almost 25 percent of the
people attending Bowl programs used the shuttle service. Each park-and-ride and shuttle lot will be protected by a uniformed Los Angeles Philharmonic guard. In addition to shuttle fares, the program is funded in part by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, and in part by Proposition A funds administered by the County Department of Public Works. Three shuttle lots in the Third District have been selected:
