Streetcars and trolleys may roll again on the streets of Los Angeles if officials heed the advice in a study expected to be released this week.
The Community Redevelopment Agency says streetcars have been successfully reintroduced in other major cities and could help relieve congestion in the ever-growing downtown area, according to the Los Angeles Times. The last five streetcar lines in the city closed in 1963 as city officials favored buses for public transit and more roads for cars.
