RUNYON CANYON UPGRADE
Runyon Canyon is getting an upgrade! After extensive outreach and collaboration with local stakeholders, the Department of Recreation and Parks (RAP) Board approved a project to install a permanent restroom in Runyon Canyon Park. This new facility is necessitated under RAP’s standards for park service levels and will serve to ensure Runyon Canyon remains safe, clean, accessible, and enjoyable for Angelenos and visitors alike!
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A permanent, 2-stall, pre-fabricated restroom is being installed in Runyon Canyon to help serve the approximately 2 million people who visit annually. This is a long-needed improvement for one of L.A.’s most beloved parks.
