Los Angeles’ transportation department lacks a long-term, comprehensive plan to build city infrastructure even as gridlock threatens to choke the region, according to an audit released Tuesday, the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

The Department of Transportation is in “enormous need of reinvention and reorganization,” lacks specific short- and long-term goals, has no strategic plan and has not incorporated many of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s transit goals, City Controller Laura Chick said in the audit.

Chick said the agency also has failed to budget properly for its DASH bus services – including routes in the San Fernando Valley – which face a shortfall that could soar to more than $200 million in the next decade.

“For too long the LADOT has found itself focusing on one project after another without an overarching vision,” she wrote in the audit.
