yutredsie·hace 2 años·discussThis is a silly political statement doomed to fail.Do I think that LA could go “car-free” for the Olympics? Maybe, but I’m doubtful the political powers that be could pull it off.I’ve yet to see any concrete plans or budgets proposed to pull this off.Just a dubious suggestion of “bike lanes” and “3000” new buses.I think if they are serious about a car free Olympics they should commit to free public transport.Even if only for just those 17 days.But, I fear that the quiet part of this goal is actually:“How can we further monetize this event?”“Well, 16 million people times $1.75 per bus ticket per ride is a lot of money!!1!”“Ooo, good idea, let’s force visitors to use our ineffectual public transportation. We’ll pitch it as environmental, we can call it ‘car-free’”I’ll be amazed if these politicians have enough restraint to avoid raising public transport prices to pay for these “car-free” plans.
