White House uses Marine One to lessen Obama traffic congestion in L.A.

The White House appears to be going to great lengths to prevent traffic tie-ups from President Obama’s visit to Southern California on Friday by transporting him to two events on the Marine One helicopter rather than on local roads.Obama touched down at LAX on Friday and was whisked by the helicopter to USC for a speech and rally.

The chopper was set to land at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum. After his USC event, he was to take Marine One to Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, then shuttle by motorcade to the Univision studios in Glendale.

The motorcade is expected to jam traffic on the 134 Freeway and Glendale surface streets.But local law enforcement officials said the use of Marine One will significantly reduce street and freeway congestion. Some law enforcement officials said they cannot recall a time when the helicopter was used as much to get a president around L.A.

After the USC rally, the president is scheduled to visit Glendale to tape an interview with Spanish-language radio host Eddie Piolin, according to the White House.Glendale police said Friday morning that they anticipate a temporary road closure along Central Avenue near the 134 Freeway, where the Univision facility is located, but CHP said no freeway would be shut for more than a couple of minutes as the presidential motorcade moves through.Obama is scheduled to arrive in Glendale at 3:25 p.m., leave at 4:05 p.m. and then depart directly for LAX to leave the Los Angeles area.

FAA Halts All Private Los Angeles Air Traffic To Make Space For Obama

Los Angeles drivers aren’t the only ones being screwed over by President Obama this Friday afternoon.The president’s journey to the USC campus will also be cushioned by a blockade of air traffic within eight miles of LAX and downtown Los Angeles — and within 10 miles of Burbank Airport — from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Federal Aviation Association told the Wrap that it has placed a Temporary Flight Restriction on all Los Angeles airspace, and that “only law enforcement aircraft and air ambulance aircraft” will be permitted through at certain times.However, LAX spokesperson Albert Rodriguez clarifies that the restrictions only apply to “pilots who don’t have a flight plan logged with the FAA.” In other words, all commercial airlines will be fine — just don’t think about taking your private jet for a spin until all signs of Obama are off the horizon.The police-enforced red carpet will cause a more catastrophic jam on ground-level: LAPD advises that the entire downtown area will be shut down from 9:30 a.m. to 2:50 p.m.

For a full list of closed streets, see the Weekly’s closure report.The president is in town to rally support for Senate incumbent hopeful Barbara Boxer. The event at USC is expected to draw a crowd of over 30,000, and will be supplemented by performances from Ozomatli and Jamie Foxx.
