75% of this money goes back to LA Metro, 25% to LADOT - equating about ~ 1 million/mile for metro and ~350k/mile for LADOT. Imagine how much money the bus lanes from a full HLA buildout and Metro's countywide BRT program could bring in. (Nathan Fielder voice) Here's the plan:
LA’s bus lane cameras issued $42.8 million in fines last year
The streets where tickets were recorded cover an estimated 31 miles. The program now accounts for nearly a quarter of the city’s parking fines.
