CREATE ·2021 Grants ChallengeSankofaCity: Zero Emissions Multimodal Transportation Ecosystem
SankofaCity ZEMTE initiative will use grant funding to continue providing free on-demand shuttle services and e-bike rentals by extension of the quick start LACI ZEMCP, Leimert Park Multimodal Transportation efforts, currently available since fall 2020. Interim funding is necessary to avoid gaps in the aforementioned mobility services through the end of 2021. Alternative grant funding is allocated for a transition towards a Leimert Park community-owned and operated transportation provider solution, scheduled to launch services in early 2022.
