Help California move more freight from dirty trucks to cleaner rail

Clear the freeways, clear the air, stop oppression of the communities along the 710 corridor along the Los Angeles River" use our easy form to send a letter to CalTrans requesting that they include the GRID project in the California Freight Mobility Plan:

I’ve been working with GRID at no pay for over three years now because I see it as the last, best chance to make planned expansions of the already-deadly 710 freeway unnecessary.

If you want to know more about the background of public health impacts and environmental devastation that make GRID necessary, see the comprehensive four-part article with video that I produced with a grant form eByline.com a few months ago here:

GRID is a portfolio company of the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator:

GRID is a real, on-the-ground effort to build a new way to move freight without trucks on roads, and it includes its own underground electric rail component! It could well be the first step to an eventual car-free Los Angeles.
