Quickest way to get from Santa Monica...
What is the quickest way to get from Santa Monica Blvd and Ocean, to Santa Monica and Wilshire?
I tried taking Santa Monica, Olympic, the 10 freeway, but all seemed the same time?
any secret way?
thanks

Taking Wilshire, Santa Monica or Olympic and cuttnig over makes the most sense. Although there are fewer lights on Olympic. It also depends on the time of day. During rush hour, all three are pretty congested.

Wait - don't Santa Monica and Wilshire run parallel to each other? You could try taking San Vicente all the way down - it runs into Wilshire - just beside the VA. But at peak hours - probably won't make much difference.

If looking for the quickest way to get from downtown Santa Monica to the Beverly Hills business district, I take Olympic. If time is not of the essence and I want a more leisurely and scenic drive, I take Wilshire, Santa Monica, or even Sunset.
