WHY DO WE NEED IT?

DTLA is booming with new residents and visitors and is Los

Angeles’ hub of sports, entertainment and culture.

The upcoming 2022 Super Bowl, 2026 World Cup and 2028 Summer

Olympics are on their way–and the fans will be here!

This project is an important part of readying for these events and

will deliver meaningful improvements to the lives of people who live, work and visit DTLA every day.

WHY DO WE NEED IT?

DTLA’s 15-year old vehicle and pedestrian wayfinding system is out-of- date, deteriorating and needs to be replaced to keep pace with the area’s current and projected growth and development.
