Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn's motion to prepare for car-free transportation during the 2028 Olympics has been postponed. The challenge: making a city known for traffic congestion car-free for the Games.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and LA Metro board member, Team USA athletes, LA28 organizing committee members and the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee , Delta executives and special guests take a picture with the official Olympic flag Monday, Aug. 12, 2024, at Los Angeles International Airport. LA Metro has pledged to make the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic games car-free.
Hahn, along with fellow Metro board members, are asking the federal government to help with transportation needs. LA Metro plans to borrow 4,000 buses from transit agencies across the country to augment its bus system, which contains more than 2,100 buses. Bass, after receiving the Olympic flag last month in Paris, the site of the most recent summer Olympics, said the city of L.A. and LA Metro will convince major employers to keep commuters off the roads by permitting them to work remotely during the Games.
