Tigers coming to Ventura Blvd.

The mayor's team of parking enforcement officers and tow truck operators -- already at work on Wilshire Boulevard -- are coming to Ventura Boulevard:

The city’s second "gridlock tiger team" was unleashed in the San Fernando Valley this morning, ticketing and towing vehicles along an 8 1/2-mile stretch of Ventura Boulevard. Tiger Team II, comprised of five Department of Transportation traffic control officers and three tow trucks, will prowl Ventura Boulevard from the San Diego (405) Freeway to Topanga Canyon Boulevard to enforce existing parking laws in an effort to keep traffic moving during rush-hour periods. Villaraigosa unleashed the first tiger team along a 14-mile stretch of Wilshire Boulevard last June, resulting in citations for more than 17,000 motorists and about 5,100 towed vehicles, according to the mayor’s office.

Why only on the East bound side of Ventura?? The west bound side - particularly between Van Nuys and Sepulveda is a nightmare. A one mile drive that can take 15 minutes.
