Climate Resolve Launches New Nonprofit focused on Zero Emission Transit & Dodger Stadium Aerial Gondola To Be First Project
August 9, 2022
Announces Free Service to Dodger Games
LOS ANGELES – Leading environmental nonprofit, Climate Resolve, announced that it has formed Zero Emissions Transit, a new subsidiary nonprofit organization focused on advancing emissions-free public transit solutions in the Los Angeles region. Through a framework agreement, Los Angeles Aerial Rapid Transit’s (LA ART) proposed zero-emission aerial gondola connection between Union Station and Dodger Stadium will be donated to Zero Emissions Transit as its inaugural project.
Also announced today, baseball fans will be able to ride the gondola for free with a Dodger game ticket. Similar to the current Dodger Stadium Express bus program, this benefit will help to maximize the air quality benefits from replacing automobile trips with the aerial gondola. As part of the framework agreement the gondola project commits to additional initiatives such as improving pedestrian amenities to encourage transit use in the communities adjacent to the proposed aerial gondola route from Union Station to Dodger Stadium. The LA ART project has also committed to nonprofit development and operation.
