Would you like to see connected, protected bikeways from Redondo Beach to El Camino College? This project is at risk of not happening in Torrance. If you would like to make this happen along this key corridor, let the City know!

Project Overview

The Redondo Beach Blvd Metro Active Transportation (RBB MAT) project is a project in design to add/improve 3.3 miles of bike lanes extending from Dominguez Park to El Camino College.

This also connects through Washington Elementary, Adams Middle School, the South Bay Galleria, future K line station, Redondo Beach Transit Center, and Alondra Park.

The Funding Agreement lists a project completion date of June 30, 2027. This project is funded at the county level via Measure M.

This project spans the jurisdictions of Redondo Beach, Lawndale, Torrance, and unincorporated LA County.

The current 15% design plans include include Class IV protected bike lanes largely throughout Redondo Beach, though only have painted Class II bike lanes in Lawndale and Torrance. Lawndale has expressed interest in evaluating Class IV (protected) options as design progresses.

As seen on the map above, on 190th St, the type of bike lane would vary on either side of the street. We would like to see the bike lane and parking flipped to a parking-protected configuration, which should be possible based on wide existing car lanes. Similarly along Redondo Beach Blvd, there would be an unprotected gap from Hawthorne Blvd to Ainsworth Ave. Ultimately we are looking to see a continuous low-stress protected bikeway as the project envisions. Read the coalition letter here for more details.
