Traffic Brigade heads to local malls

The city is making shopping a bit easier. Well, a bit might be too much. Officials are bringing the Traffic Relief Brigade to local malls:

Drivers heading to 43 intersections near malls and shopping centers can expect some relief -- beginning today -- thanks to the deployment of 70 traffic control officers, Los Angeles officials announced. The Holiday Shopping Traffic Relief Brigade will be on the streets from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. until Dec. 24. "From Crenshaw to right here at Hollywood and Highland, we want our residents to spend more time inside stores instead of stuck in traffic around the stores," said Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. The traffic officers will be at intersections around The Grove, Hollywood & Highland, the Westside Pavillion, the Sherman Oaks Galleria, Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, Northridge Fashion Center, and the Toy, Fashion and Jewelry districts in downtown Los Angeles. Officers will also be on Melrose Avenue between Highland Avenue and Gardner Street; at Larchmont and Beverly boulevards; and at Westwood and Wilshire boulevards. The Westfield Corp. donated $75,000 to the city to pay for the officers. (CNS)
