Will you know who kill this?

The first phase will involve the subway between Metro G Line and Wilshire Boulevard (transfer to “D” train), including stops at Ventura Boulevard and UCLA.
I think the light rail between Van Nuys Metrolink and Metro G Line is an unneeded redundancy, though I guess it’s meant to serve local traffic, while the subway will serve crosstown passengers.

What they need is a Van Ness line to the bay.
If the extension of the T to Fisherman’s Wharf goes forward, the next phase would take it through the Marina to a terminus in the Presidio.
If that happens, a Van Ness rail line would be pretty redundant, since you would already have a north/south service between the Presidio/Marina and FiDi (one stop away from Civic Center). In an ideal world would you have both? Sure. But considering we do have a very effective BRT line on Van Ness, I would prioritizie other rail projects like Geary/19th Ave.

Right.I forgot about BRT Van Ness. It still seems mainly set up for tourists though.
