    CONTACT: Michael Gold Public Information Officer, Long Beach Transit 562.599.8534 (office) 562.444.5309 (cell) [email protected] Julie Alvarez, FlixBus 213.378.3917 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Long Beach Transit and FlixBus Partner to Provide Affordable, Long-Distance Transportation New Service to Las Vegas starts March 21 LONG BEACH, CALIF. (March 14, 2018) – Long Beach Transit today announced a partnership with FlixBus to provide affordable bus service to Las Vegas starting March 21. FlixBus, a European-based mobility company, selected Long Beach as one of its hubs for travel to add to its growing network of destinations. “Long Beach impressed us with its diversity, energy and very progressive transit policy. It’s probably the most FlixBus-compatible community in California,” said Pierre Gourdain, Managing Director for FlixBus USA. “We are thrilled to start the route there and looking to add many more connections in the future.” Utilizing LBT’s downtown First Street Transit Gallery between Long Beach Blvd. and Pine Avenue, customers can take FlixBus to Las Vegas by purchasing tickets through the FlixBus app or website. Customers can also buy tickets at LBT’s Transit and Visitor Information Center. FlixBus will also offer service to Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals in April. “Our partnership with FlixBus is another example of LBT connecting communities, both locally and beyond,” said LBT President and CEO, Kenneth McDonald. “Now, LBT customers can catch a bus to the Transit Gallery and then explore destinations outside California.” Most of LBT’s buses connect to the Transit Gallery. In addition, customers can connect to other destinations outside the area through the Los Angeles Metro Blue Line, FlyAway service to Los Angeles International Airport and through connections to Long Beach Airport.

  • 2016 PEIR, Draft December 2015
    3.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section of the Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) describes cultural resources in the SCAG region, discusses the potential impacts of the proposed 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (“2016 RTP/SCS,” “Plan,” or “Project”) on cultural resources, identifies mitigation measures for the impacts, and evaluates the residual impacts. Cultural resources were evaluated in accordance with Appendix G of the 2015 State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. Cultural resources within the SCAG region were evaluated at a programmatic level of detail, in relation to the general plans of the six counties and 191 cities within the SCAG region; review of general information characterizing the paleontological resources that have been reported from the SCAG region and review of Dibblee maps of geology and soils; general information characterizing prehistoric and historic human occupation within the SCAG region; general sensitivity of the SCAG region with respect to Native American Sacred sites and tribal cultural resources available through coordination with the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and direct outreach to tribal governments within the SCAG region, including two Native American consultation workshops hosted by SCAG during preparation of the 2016 RTP/SCS and related PEIR; and review of known cemeteries in the SCAG region; a review of related literature germane to the SCAG region; as well as a review of SCAG’s 2012 RTP/SCS PEIR.1 Cultural resources within the SCAG region are recorded in the paleontological fossils; archeological sites and artifacts, historic sites, artifacts, structures and buildings; and the built environment.
