you are mixing up Measure R with this report. Numerous MEasure R projects are already under construction. Gold Line foothill extension, Expo Line phase 2, BRT extension in the valley and starting in the next calendar year are the Crenshaw LRT and the Downtown Connector. Add in all the freeway improvements, bike and pedestrian projects and you can see that Measure R is already making huge impacts in LA County.
