🎙 CA RxR 4.12: Route 14, Route 64, LRN 290: Unbuilt Valley Freeways

[cahwyguy]

Episode 4.12 starts our exploration of the last route of this season: Route 14. Segment (a) of Route 14 is the unbuilt "Reseda to the Sea" freeway, so we take this opportunity to discuss the unbuilt freeways of the San Fernando Valley: the Reseda Freeway (Route 14), the Whitnall Freeway (Route 64), the Laurel Canyon Freeway (Route 170), and the freeway plans for Sunland Tujunga, the Angeles National Forest (Route 118, Route 122, Route 249), and the plan for the Mulholland Expressway (Route 268). We also discuss LRN 14 (part of US 40) and Sign Route 14 (which became Route 91). We'll discuss the built portion of Route 14 between I-5 and US 395 in the last official season 4 episode. With respect to Tom's sound quality: It's better. Daniel's mic has an occasional "pop" or "thump" problems; we'll hopefully fix that in Ep 4.13. We're also working to line up 2-3 bonus episodes during the season break.
