Cars heading east from Los Angeles in the evening rush hour
LOS ANGELES is world-famous for its traffic and congested freeways. That’s why, when the city’s mayor, Karen Bass, pledged to make the 2028 Olympics a “car-free” game, many people were surprised.
As Paris flew over the Olympic flag, Bass touted his vision at a news conference: There may be no parking at many venues and sports enthusiasts will have to take public transportation to get to the venues, which will stretch from the city center. to Inglewood via downtown. Santa Monica Beach.
Although the city has an extensive network of light rail, metro lines and buses, compared to previous host cities such as Paris, London and Tokyo, its formula is far behind. Additionally, declining ridership and safety issues on public transportation have drawn attention this year, raising questions about how the city will inspire others to board.
