Los Angeles is ramping up its infrastructure investment, thanks to a perfect storm of upcoming events, including the 2028 Olympics and local population and economic growth. These projects range from the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, environmental updates at the Port of Long Beach and the Los Angeles International Airport and metro line extensions throughout the region.
“Infrastructure projects in Los Angeles are being driven by a perfect storm of regional economic growth, economic globalization, and deferred maintenance and end-of-life of existing infrastructure,” Shiraz Tangri, of counsel at Meyers Nave in Los Angeles, tells The Recorder affiliate GlobeSt.com. “Southern California has experienced sustained jobs and housing growth for a decade. Mostly notably, urbanization and the renaissance of Downtown L.A. has added 35,040 new residential units since 1999, just over 5,500 are under construction and almost 33,200 are proposed, creating demands for not just more but also new and innovative types of transit, transportation, entertainment, and recreation infrastructure, as well as more, upgraded and cleaner energy and other utilities.”
