Twenty-eight by '28

The Twenty-eight by '28 initiative is an effort set forth by former Mayor Eric Garcetti that the City of Los Angeles complete 28 transportation infrastructure projects before the start of the 2028 Summer Olympics on July 14, 2028 (2028-07-14) and the 2028 Summer Paralympics the following month.

Most of the projects on the original list are funded through Measure R and Measure M and will receive accelerated priority, though several more were proposed by this plan.[1] In December 2018, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority stated it would need $26.2 billion to complete the list of projects.[2]

In March 2024, the Metro Board substituted 11 projects that could not be implemented in time for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games with 11 projects that would be able to hit this deadline and are in line with the agency's 2028 Mobility Concept Plan.[3]
