Can any Los Angeles commuter help me answer this question.

On SUNDAY, July 13th, I want to travel from 1331 East Katella Ave in
Anahiem, California to 7800 Beverly Blvd in Los Angeles  Is this
possible.  If it is possible please tell me how I would do this.

Thank you

Hello stephenh-ga,

Yes, it certainly is possible to travel this route on the day you
provided. I used the Yahoo map feature to obtain driving directions
between these two points:

http://maps.yahoo.com/py/ddResults.py?Pyt=Tmap

By entering in the two addresses you provided, I was given the exact
directions for getting from the Anaheim address to LA:

There is also a text only version (excluding maps):

I am sorry to say that I think that I left out a very important
detail.  I don't have a car and I would need to travel by PUBLIC
transportation.  I know that this probably changes the entire force
but that is what information I need to know.

Hi again stephenh-ga,

I will try my best to accomodate that fact that you need to use public
transportation.

Using the TranStar trip planner (which combines bus, rail, Amtrak),
you can map out your trip fairly easily.

http://ts.scag.ca.gov/transit2/

The one snag with this is that the system only lets you check 45 days
in advance (as it is restricted by the information made available by
the transportation services).

I did manage to map your route for next Sunday - the departure has a
match, and there are two "close matches" for your arrival location. I
selected the closest one and obtained the following result:

"Here is the trip you requested...

Depart... 1331 East Katella Ave in Anaheim

Then... 
Go to: Anaheim Station, 2150 East Katella
Board: Amtrak Pacific Surf Line/Union Station at 12:29 pm (next 1:53
pm)
Fare: Pay $8.00, Get Amtrak Ticket-C.O.F.C.

Get Off: Union Station at 1:15 pm

Then... 
Go to: Union Station-Red, 800 N Alameda St
Board: Mta Red Line/North Hollywood at 1:22 pm (next train at 1:34 pm)
Fare: Pay $1.60, Get M.T.A. Transfer

Get Off: Vermont Beverly Station at 1:34 pm

Then... 
Go to: N.W. Corner Of Beverly & Vermont
Board: Mta Bus #014/Beverly Hills at 1:42 pm (next bus at 1:55 pm)
Fare: Show Transfer To Driver

Get Off: Beverly & Genesee at 2:00 pm

Arrive... Beverly Bl:n Ogden Dr in Los Angeles


Total Fare: $9.60"

Since this is a dynamic page I can't provide a link but if you provide
the addresses like I did you should obtain a similar result for the
day that you are planning your trip.

It appears that the trip takes approximately 2 hours using this
itinerary (I set the depart time to 12 Noon as you hadn't specified
it.

Hopefully this answers your query in a more relevant manner :)

Cheers,
