Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is gearing up for the 2028 Olympics, aiming to improve public transportation and address street homelessness. The city will collaborate with other cities to borrow buses and build new housing units for the unhoused population. Discussions are also underway to shift work schedules and truck deliveries to ease traffic congestion.

LA 2028 President Casey Wasserman is inspired by the successful Paris Games and plans to showcase all aspects of Los Angeles’ culture, from Hollywood to fashion to food. While no new permanent venues will be built, challenges exist in utilizing the city’s landmarks like Paris did. Planning is underway to make the Olympics a global showcase of LA’s offerings.
