Detour through the park

Do you feel like hiking through Griffith Park while slogging in traffic aboard an MTA bus? Well, now you can do both. Sort of. New posters highlighting the attractions of Griffith Park will be be plastered on MTA buses and rail cars. According to CNS:

A poster celebrating Griffith Park will be on display on Metro buses and rail cars through January, transit officials announced today. The poster, by artist Bob Zoell, uses bright colors and playful illustrations to depict several attractions in the 4,000-acre park, such as hiking, trains and horseback riding. The poster is the 17th to be commissioned by Metro Art as part of its Metro Neighborhoods poster series.

When driving in LA, it's all about knowing the best shortcuts! For the first time ever, super shortcuts previously used only by couriers and ambulance drivers are now available for all of us to use!

This is a great use of taxpayer money.

I bet $100 that MTA is going to spend more money on these posters than they do on helping people form carpools.

Why is MTA promoting Griffith Park? Shouldn`t they be solving traffic congestion?

http://trafficbulldog.org is a commuter advocacy group committed to helping people form carpools. Cause the MTA is failing miserably at it.
