Having last been updated in 1990, this comprehensive effort will modernize key elements of the City’s planning framework, including Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space, Safety, and Noise. The update process, expected to span approximately three years, will better position Hawthorne for future funding opportunities and ensure that equity and sustainability remain central to the City’s long-term vision.
As part of Metro’s Los Angeles River Bike Path Gap Closure Feasibility Study and the City of Los Angeles’s Los Angeles River Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study, the Los Angeles River Path Project would close the largest remaining 8-mile gap along the river from Elysian Valley in the City of Los Angeles in the north through the City of Vernon to the south. The multi-jurisdictional project requires many agencies to participate, among many local and regional plans, including Metro’s Active Transportation Strategic Plan, SCAG’s Long Range Transportation Plan, County of Los Angeles Bike Master Plan, and the Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan. The project entails the environmental clearance, design and construction of approximately 8-miles of new bike path and facilities along the Los Angeles River, specifically considering infrastructure for a bike path, pedestrian walkways, shade elements, stormwater capture features, lighting, signage and additional landscaping elements.
