L.A.Metro打算重新校正一份法院下令的补充环境影响报告,用于拟议的5亿美元的Gondola项目,将联合车站与道奇体育场连接起来,这是争取州和联邦批准的关键一步。 L.A. Metro is set to recertify a court-ordered supplemental environmental impact report for the proposed $500 million gondola project linking Union Station to Dodger Stadium, a key step toward securing state and federal approvals. 437页的报告由Metro执行管理委员会批准4-1页,其中涉及环境问题,使项目得以在反对的情况下向前推进。 The 437-page report, approved 4-1 by Metro’s Executive Management Committee, addresses environmental concerns and enables the project to move forward despite opposition. 由非营利的零排放转运公司牵头,Gondola将跨越1.2英里,以零排放方式运作,并提供与道奇体育场的直接过境连接。 Led by nonprofit Zero Emissions Transit, the gondola would span 1.2 miles, operate with zero emissions, and provide a direct transit link to Dodger Stadium. 批评者争辩说,它服务于私人利益,缺乏公共资金保障,可能不会减少交通量或排放,引述UCLA的一项研究。 Critics argue it serves private interests, lacks public funding guarantees, and may not reduce traffic or emissions, citing a UCLA study. 支助者强调创造就业、环境惠益和改善过境通道。 Supporters highlight job creation, environmental benefits, and improved transit access. 由于预期投票率高,每个发言者的公开评论将限制在30秒以内。 Public comment will be limited to 30 seconds per speaker due to high expected turnout.
