JUNE 3, 2021
The Community Access Program would provide an affordable and sustainable first/last mile connection
LOS ANGELES – Los Angeles Aerial Rapid Transit (LA ART) announced it has proposed to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) the creation of a Community Access Program for local residents and businesses to use the LA ART system, its innovative proposal to create a zero-emission transit link from Union Station to Dodger Stadium.
LA ART’s proposed Community Access Program would encourage daily use of this zero-emission project by local community members, in addition to the event-day periods when ridership will be prioritized for Stadium event attendees. Encouraging use for stadium access is important to achieve the project’s air quality improvement goals to reduce existing emissions from vehicle trips during the hours on the approximately 100 days a year when stadium events occur.
