Connect Transportation and Land Use

10 July 2000 - 7:00am

Failure to recognize the connection between land use and transportation threatens the region's economic future and quality of life.

Glenn Gritzner and Katherine Perez, Executive Directors of the new Southern California Transportation Coalition and Land Use Coalition, write in an LA Times Editorial: "The region's continued health and prosperous future depends on decision-makers recognizing the link between transportation and land use, providing more transportation options for both urban and suburban dwellers, and realizing that not all of the region's housing needs can be met by building on the urban fringe."
