“Connecting transit riders to jobs is imperative if we are going to reach our GHG reduction goals. Sepulveda Transit Corridor must be built in a way that not only benefits existing transit riders, but also encourages mode shift for the 500,000 people that drive through this corridor every weekday. UCLA is the 3rd largest employer in Los Angeles County. UCLA has a daytime population of over 84,000, including more than 37,000 employees on campus. Approximately 26% of UCLA commuters come from north of the campus. Of those, nearly 2,527 of their students and 7,457 employees live in the San Fernando Valley.”
