Costly bike lane mandates have stalled street repairs across Los Angeles, leaving Mayor-elect Nithya Raman grappling with how to fix the city’s crumbling roads on her very first day in office while complying with a voter-approved law she championed. At her first City Hall press conference since winning the election Tuesday, Raman acknowledged to the California Post that soaring costs tied to Measure HLA have forced the city to scale back road repairs. The law requires Los Angeles to add planned bike lanes, bus lanes and pedestrian safety upgrades during major roadwork, driving up the cost of once-routine repaving projects.
