And it is not going to be a small feat to try and run up one up what was done in Paris.
00:05
But there are a few things.
00:06
One thing that L.A. has determined is that they are not going to build any new buildings.
00:11
So construction is not going to be something that they'll be looming against any kind of
00:15
deadlines for L.A. 28.
00:17
The biggest issues facing Los Angeles right now is transportation and the homelessness
00:21
problem.
00:22
So first, transportation is the biggest one.
00:25
Los Angeles, it is famous all over the world.
00:27
Love their cars.
00:28
There is not a big public transit system here.
00:31
So they're going to have to figure out how to bus everybody.
00:34
It's a vast city.
00:35
There are a lot of different venues in very far locations.
00:38
So really trying to figure out how to utilize the transportation and how to get people out
00:43
of the city so that there isn't all of that congestion.
00:46
Now, Mayor Karen Bass has promised that they will bring in buses to bring people to the
00:50
different locations.
00:51
There will be dedicated bus lanes to help with congestion.
00:55
And she is hoping that a lot of Los Angelinos will be leaving the city during the Olympic
00:59
Games or if they do stay here, that there will be work from home mandates to allow for
01:04
that congestion, because that's where most of the traffic happens is during the commute
01:09
to and from work.
01:10
Now, the other problem is homelessness.
01:12
It is a major issue here in Los Angeles.
01:15
And so Mayor Karen Bass is trying to ensure that we can fix both of those problems.
