Glendale City Council will again consider implementing a pilot “road diet” at their regular meeting Tuesday, January 31, at 6 p.m., this time considering several possible streets. The council deferred a decision on La Crescenta Ave. last month, directing staff to return with more options. Walk Bike Glendale is actively advocating for action now, as road diets are a proven method of making streets safer, calmer, and more accessible for all users including pedestrians and bicyclists.
