The City of Pico Rivera in east Los Angeles County is making a pitch for a commuter rail and bus rapid transit station to create better transit connections to the rest of Los Angeles County. As Steven Sharp explains in Urbanize LA, 'The Pico Rivera 2035 initiative, or PR 2035, aims to redevelop roughly 1,080 acres of land as a new downtown hub, split between new public open space and live/work commercial uses. That effort also aims to position Pico Rivera as a new hub for micro electric vehicle production, capitalizing on existing startups in Southern California, as well as proximity to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and access to freight rail and the interstate highways.
